DetailsThe search box on the website for the AUR has helpful features that are not found in the search box for the package database.
Examples are: * option to search by name only, exact name, maintainer * sort order * results per page To see for yourself, compare https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ to https://www.archlinux.org/packages/ . |
This task depends upon
* There's a drop-down list of maintainers
* You can sort all the columns apart from 'Version' and 'Description'
* Search by exact name is already covered by
FS#26383and to lesser extent byFS#30773In the meantime, you can create a shell function that will use positional parameters to filter by repo, maintainer etc. or use expac to extract and format this info.
