- Semaphor 5y agoYeah, I thought the package I tried to install had an issue, but didn’t have the time to investigate. This explains it.
- viccuad 5y agoThis sounds for the better. Not having code mirrors (as other distribution channels) sounds not just insecure, but borderly malicious.
- themusicgod1 5y agoUsing github, period, is not just insecure, but actively malicious. Stop using NSA/Microsoft.
- turminal 5y agoI suspect you have no idea what AUR is and how it works and furthermore, you have no experience with software packaging. If a project is using github to publish releases, where else are consumers of that software going to get them from? Having all sources of everything that is packaged backed up is a must for the official repository of a competent distro, but even in that case there is no reason not to use github in normal operation.
- mfashby 5y agoDepends what you mean by better. It's kind of annoying for me when trying to install some software I want to actually use, and I just can't.
