Lukas Fleischer bfea8b29ad Detect split packages from .AURINFO
There is an extension to the .AURINFO format that supports split
packages. Since there is no support for split packages in the AUR so
far, add a check to identify these cases.

===================
Arch User Repository (AUR)
===================

About:
=====
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 Arch
building/packaging script (makepkg) and installed via the Arch pacman 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 (based on package name,
package description, package submitter, package maintainer)
-Display submitted package information by parsing PKGBUILD (description,
license, package dependencies, etc)
-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-Mark packages as out-of-date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 have ability to search for and modify accounts
-Area for Trusted Users
and Developers to post AUR-related proposals and vote on them
