Hi all, I am not a TU, but its packages used by me, I was describe its installations in Arch in some
my articles: it bad idea to remove them from community repo, my articles will be broken :-)

So, I can try take work for adopting avr-libc, binutils-avr, gcc-avr and arvdude (if needed, I have
two avrdude-* packages in AUR with two variants of patches (one of them - my) for FTDI bit-bang
support) PKGBUILDs for build new versions. I will configure some reminder scripts for information
about new versions and operative fixing. Also, I am programmer, and I can fix some code errors that
caused build crash.

Pleeeeeeeease, don't remove this packages from community =-)
