Plans

Various aims and to-do's - if anyone else wants to fix something here, open an issue or something like that to let me know, otherwise I'll be trying to sort them out when I can. Some are probably quite easy, others might take a long while.

Immediate goals

• Pakku doesn't offer to remove build dependencies after a failed build.

Further goals

• doas support - never used this myself but other AUR helpers support it so it must be popular!

• Language support: nim is not fully supported by gettext so it may need some manual intervention to extract the translatable strings. There is already some groundwork for translations put in place by kitsunyan, the tr tags for example. I got this to work in my consolelogga app but that was C and built with scons which made it easier - it wasn't that difficult though.

• Anti-virus scanning - I think it would be possible to allow configurable antivirus scan commands to be run at PKGBUILD d/l, source d/l, built code and finished package stages. Some users are wary of the AUR and it would also make it that much harder for malware to exist in there. Automating this could be helpful for people with higher security requirements.
