Blacklist AUR paket like libgdata

Amen

But it is not what this topic is about.

It is about preventing a given AUR script from entering the system.

[INFO] Stable branch - BIG update BEST practice

The AUR incidents is - kind’a - a slap-in-face reminder to regularly run

pamac remove --orphans --unneeded

or

pacman -Qdtq | sudo pacman -Rns -
pacman -Qqd | sudo pacman -Rsu -

From this topic and the recent AUR incidents - I felt the need to do a more generic write-up on package maintance.
