(since these are similar, this is a copy/paste from a reply to the
tails-iso deletion request)
Before I created these I had looked for other examples.
First there's a package in community for the virtualbox guest iso:
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/any/virtualbox-guest-iso/
Additionally, despite the description, this package also just downloads
and iso and installs it into a directory:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/grml-iso/
So I'd imagine that having an up-to-date iso in a known location would
be useful to at least a few people other than myself, which meets the
criteria of "usefulness" in the AUR guidelines:
"If more than a few people would find this package useful, it is
appropriate for submission." (
