kakerlakatzeis there like a script I can use to see if I have an infected AUR package that wasn't written with AI?
I found a txt file with all the infected packages and I seem to be safe but also what if this isn't actually the list
Niko@niko I have no idea how to do that, I just did sudo pacman -Qm and then compared to the list of known infected packages
@anarceus when you're installing AUR packages you should be reviewing the PKGBUILDs at the very least for anything suspicious and that's 30 extra seconds with a half decent AUR helper that does that for you (i recommend
paru)@niko never done that before. Assume it's the diffs to show or something thingie on yay, when starting out on arch pretty much everyone told me there was no reason to not just click through haha.
Besides I'm more tech savvy than the average person but less tech savvy than literally any other tech savvy person. I don't think I could actually identify a suspicious pkgbuild anyway so it wouldn't have saved me here
I could NOW in our case because I know what the problem files look like but outside of that I'm just a critter mainly using cachyOS because it's easy and doesn't cause me problems in any other way lmao
@niko is there a way to check theough them in post? I updated after it happened because news didn't reach me quick enough unfortunately
