I haven't worked on Aurget in a while. As such, it lags behind the more recent AUR helpers in a number of important ways:
It doesn't take full advantage of the newer AUR API
It doesn't build packages in a sandbox
It doesn't always handle split packages correctly
I have personally been using aurutils and aurto and I'm quite happy with these tools:
The architecture of a local repository is quite clever and works really well
Small, focused utilities (aurutils) with a convenience layer (aurto) work out to a really good UX that is understandable, with a powerful layer available when needed; aurutils is very well-thought-out and aurto makes smart choices in how it abstracts
I like the idea of maintainer "trust" (aurto) so far, we'll see how it goes. I was never one to edit PKGBUILDs before install, so this is a step up for me, even if it's not truly secure for anything, really
So I'm going to formally stop maintaining Aurget features or fixes myself. I'm happy to continue reviewing and merging PRs for now, and if anyone wants to take over as maintainer, please let me know.
