How bad was it?

• graemep 4mo ago
  1,500 packages out of 107,000 so pretty bad, ameliorated by only affecting installs of those in a window of a few days. AUR comes with a warning that its up to you to check what you install from there.

    I was concerned at headline, then saw "oh just AUR" Next up, "millions of malicious packages still not taken down on internet"

    I wonder what typical AUR usage looks like. I apparently have 27 packages installed and last updated one in November.

      There's more than one way but this lists packages not installed by pacman itself: pacman -Qm Only 237 on my 12 year old system but I rarely update AUR packages and usually try to remove unused ones before updating.
