    Am I missing something ?

    Just because I have 3/4 package on my system doesn't mean the 400+ list of affected package gets shorter on the other side...

    I'm actually pretty cautious with AUR and I only install them when there is no other options.

    I was just curious because I didnt think it was so tediuous to check against an alphabetical list on a website using ctrl+f. But thats just me. It took me less than a minute to check my 8 aur packages against the list
