Arch User Repository (AUR)
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
The Arch User Repository (AUR) is a framework for hosting a collection of
|
|
packaging scripts that are created and submitted by the Arch community. The
|
|
scripts contained in the repository (PKGBUILDs) can be built using the AUR
|
|
building/packaging script `mkaurball` and installed via the Arch package
|
|
manager `pacman`. The AUR project aims to provide the necessary web interface,
|
|
database schema, and scripts for a multi-lingual community-driven repository.
|
|
|
|
Functionality
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
* Users may submit source packages that contain a PKGBUILD.
|
|
* User accounts with varying permission levels (User, Trusted User, Developer).
|
|
* Ability to search for specific submitted packages.
|
|
* Display package information by parsing meta-data provided with the packages.
|
|
* Users can make comments on package information page.
|
|
* Mark packages as out-of-date.
|
|
* Vote for well-done and popular user submitted packages.
|
|
* Trusted User and Developer can search for and modify accounts.
|
|
* Area for Trusted Users to post AUR-related proposals and vote on them.
