Details

With 4.4.0, it is not possible to search for packages with a version requirement, either via the web interface or RPC:

[archie@vbox bin]$ curl -g 'https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc/?v=5&type=info&arg[]=dpkg%3E1.8.17'
{"version":5,"type":"multiinfo","resultcount":0,"results":[]}
[archie@vbox bin]$ curl -g 'https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc/?v=5&type=info&arg[]=dpkg'
{"version":5,"type":"multiinfo","resultcount":1,"results":[{"ID":368734,"Name":"dpkg","PackageBaseID":16974,"PackageBase":"dpkg","Version":"1.18.18-2","Description":"The Debian Package Manager. Don't use it instead of Arch's 'pacman'.","URL":"https:\/\/tracker.debian.org\/pkg\/dpkg","NumVotes":427,"Popularity":5.13854,"OutOfDate":1490611868,"Maintainer":"Alad","FirstSubmitted":1236808300,"LastModified":1482928754,"URLPath":"\/cgit\/aur.git\/snapshot\/dpkg.tar.gz","Depends":["xz","zlib","bzip2","perl"],"MakeDepends":["perl-io-string","perl-timedate","git"],"CheckDepends":["perl-io-string","perl-test-pod"],"License":["GPL"],"Keywords":[]}]}

This would be useful e.g. to easily check if versioned dependencies in PKGBUILDs can be provided by the AUR. For example:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gazebo/
