What I love about the #archlinux #aur packages malware is that most headlines and people in comments of certain threads are screaming wild accusations and going crazy about a system they don't understand claiming that it is the end of all and that it is the worst thing to ever happen.

Most of these people have no idea that arch linux is not for newbies and its main userbase aims to be "competent users" that know what they are doing. Most of all it comes to just "be able to read".

¡Adiós a los dolores de cabeza de Pop!_OS!

Al fin tengo el control total de mi PC gracias a una distribución limpia, ultrarrápida y siempre actualizada. Para los equipos de mis amigos y conocidos, prefiero la estabilidad sin complicaciones instalándoles un sistema derivado que es amigable desde el primer segundo.

The #ArchLinux AUR malware attack is a type of supply chain attack not unlike the more widely publicized and widespread NPM ones. In this case "orphaned" projects were claimed by a malicious actor and had info-stealing code placed in the pre-install scripts for those projects. The simple act of installing them would compromise your system.
