Volunteer from Arch Linux here. I ask this whenever a big thread comes up: are there any packages in the AUR that you'd really like to see be made into an official package?

Hi, Arch user here, thanks for your work. I'd love to see VSCode[1] in the official repos, Atom is there and VSCode is arguably becoming even more popular now. 1 - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/visual-studio-code https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/visual-studio-code

  Hi, I'm the maintainer of that package! Unlike building from source [1], that package uses the official binary distribution and is not MIT licensed. So it might be a better idea to move the source build [1] to [community]. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/visual-studio-code-oss https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/visual-studio-code-oss

    Cool, yeah, definitely looks like a better package for inclusion. Thanks for maintaining the package!

Another Arch user here - thanks for your work! A few packages that I'd like to see brought over from the AUR would be git-cola (Git GUI), corebird (Gtk Twitter app), and tilix (Gtk terminal with advanced features).

Thank you for your work. I'd really like to see the web server caddy included in official packages.

rcm, the dotfile manager! I use it get fresh systems going. FreeBSD and OpenBSD have a pkg/port, but neither Debian nor Arch currently have an official package. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rcm/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rcm/ Should also mention Blink, the softphone. Looks and works better than Linphone (in the offical repos) in my experience.
