I just ran a `aurphan -a` and got the interesting result "rxvt-unicode-256xresources",
which I thought odd since I was pretty sure that it was already maintained.
I decided to go and adopt it since it's a package that I use and find quite
helpful, but when I clicked open the package in the AUR I saw that it was in fact
maintained by someone whose name in the AUR is "null". To be sure that it was a bug
and not just a one-off error I tried installing the other package they maintain,
"todo", and ran aurphan again. Lo and behold, another package had suddenly popped up
in my list of unmaintained packages.


Steps to reproduce:
* Install aurphan from the repos and "rxvt-unicode-256xresources" or "todo" from the AUR
* Run aurphan -a
This task depends upon
