Yes there will be a problem going into the future and Allan's removal of my
ability to access the AUR assures that will take place. SInce I did NOT
remove anything from the AUR and stil lhave NOT to date, his unilateral
action will mean that packages with the same name in two different repos
will have two version numbers. This specifically disallows either my
maintianing a separate repo or Arch maintianing these packages. The users
suffer.

This is NOT hard to understand. You said this was reasonable, and you agreed
less than two days ago to what I wanted to do on the TU irc channel.
