For every single update, for all your AUR packages, all the time. You know that thing where if you make a security review feature obnoxious, after some time people will just accept everything without even looking? Yeah... | |||||||||||||||||

> For every single update, for all your AUR packages, all the time. Yes, that's what I used to do when I ran Arch. It's usually easy. The PKGBUILD is usually small to begin with and the difference for a new version should normally be something like the URL and the version number and not much else, so you can just diff it against the old version. | |||||||||||||||||

You are thinking of the alarm fatigue[1], but it doesn't apply here -- there are no constant alerts warning that you are doing something dangerous to the point you get desensitized and start to ignore them. The correct analogy here are checklists -- things that you need to check if you are to do this "dangerous" activity (AUR usage), akin to pre-flight checklist. | |||||||||||||||||
