For about a week, every AUR check on Manjaro has looked like this:
:: Searching databases for updates...
-> Flagged Out Of Date AUR Packages: cursor-bin google-chrome visual-studio-code-bin
there is nothing to do
Not a local glitch. Arch disabled AUR package adoption (and later pushes) after a wave of malicious adoptions and follow-up commits. Orphaned packages that need a new maintainer — including popular -bin ones like Chrome, Cursor, and VS Code — stay flagged out of date until the freeze lifts.
Announcement: AUR packages adoption disabled (aur-general, 30 Jul 2026). Stay vigilant with AUR builds in the meantime.
