Do groups register in AUR packages? My understanding is that they do not
because there is no repo metadata. Then I would say that metapackages for
large AUR builds like this one would be the way to go, but to keep the group
info in so that if in the future this all moves to community then we are
ready for it.

Unless of course there is group magic that I don't know about!
