This git repository hosts PKGBUILDs that have been modified from the upstream
Arch Linux (http://archlinux.org) release in order to build on the ARMv5te and
ARMv7-a architectures supported by Arch Linux ARM. The distribution follows the

even included Yaourt (yaourt -AS aurpackage) to install directly
from AUR.
