Well, I belive he is wrapping libalpm and I suggested him to do so considering it the right approach, although he might be directly using pacman as well...otoh, yaourt is just a hack.

There's an attempt to write somewhat of a replacement for yaourt (yaourt is apparently not receiving much love anymore), and it's being written in LISP :-) http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=598292#p598292 /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
