    the arch news channel is for breaking changes to arch pacakges (so not the AUR) only. maybe you could subscribe to aur-general@lists.archlinux.org.

      They are actually putting a message on the regular news feed about the AUR! https://archlinux.org/news/active-aur-malicious-packages-incident/ As it should be. It just took a bit too long in my opinion, as discussions are going on since yesterday.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
