I'm the maintain for shaman in the [community] repo and I should be able 
to push it fairly quickly once the release is done.  Note that shaman 
users will not be able to update pacman until shaman is updated due to 
some versioned deps.

The main issue with this is that pacman will be in the [testing] repo 
first and there is current not a working testing repo for [community] so 
shaman will need to wait until pacman is moved to [core].
