A multilingual package manager for Arch Linux and the AUR.
Aura is a multilingual package manager for Arch Linux, written in Rust, that supplements Pacman to support building packages from the Arch Linux User Repository (AUR). The project originated in 2012 and has evolved to support various use cases including package downgrading, system snapshots, and dependency visualization, all while maintaining full compatibility with Pacman's command syntax. Aura is built with Rust as its primary implementation language and includes supporting libraries for core logic, connection pooling to the Alpm database, and AUR metadata access, along with Common Lisp helper code for development tasks. The project is maintained by Colin Woodbury (fosskers) and has been translated into over 25 languages by a global community of contributors.
