  • Arch User Repository (AUR) has been under a DDoS attack for two weeks.
  • Arch Linux's main web page and forums were also targeted but are now accessible for some users.
  • Arch developers are working with their hosting provider to mitigate the attack and evaluating DDoS protection options.
  • Users are advised to use mirrors from the pacman-mirrorlist package during the outage.
  • A GitHub mirror of AUR is available for retrieving packages, and documentation can be found on arch-wiki-docs and arch-wiki-light.
