There's a point in everyone's life when you feel the need to write an AUR helper because there are only about 20 of them.
So say hi to 20+1.
Yay was created with a few objectives in mind and based on the design of yaourt and apacman:
- Have almost no dependencies.
2016-12-10 00:12:09 +00:00
- Provide an interface for pacman.
- Have yaourt like search.
- Know when git packages are due for an upgrade (missing this one for now).
