I agree that tags would be cool but I don't see a real need for it, "yaourt

Perhaps, and that's one of the downsides of tagging. My point was really
that setting a category is a piece of cake for a maintainer to do. It
takes about three second

Searching in a pool of >4 packages naturally leads to using
a category in which to search for, doesn't it?
And packages without category woul
I think tags would be cool but really not worth the effort. Like Dan said,
descriptions are king.

The only really interesting category imo is the games one. And even that is

I think most of these packages are created by uploading the PKGBUILD
using burp or a similar AUR uploader. If the categories were to stay
