the fact that pacaur is now unmaintained is an issue, we should consider changing the default AUR helper and possibly proposing an alternative

I don't see any problem with this. Either:

  1. pacaur will break, and then we can have this discussion
  2. (more likely), pacaur will be adopted by someone
  3. if nobody does that, probably I will adopt it if it falls out of date or is missing critical changes

I will work on adding yay and possibly trizen to the list of supported helpers, that should be straightforward

You can see my implementation ansible-aur, I support trizen and yay and also implemented a simple internal builder. I unforked as it was getting too far from the original but comments are welcome.
