Actually since Arora has been unmaintained for the past two years I am considering just dropping it from our official repos. Do people still actually use it?

>Do people still actually use it?
I personally don't. I found the bug when I was trying to port a bunch of packages to an unsupported architecture.

Alright, I'm removing Arora from our repos. Cheers.
