Except the reason for that is that arch doesn't need to distribute
that software officially because mostly the people who use it use it
to provide the official distribution with it. It's somewhat a chicken
and egg question. Now that you had to to point out that the software
used to build the official repository is distributed inofficially,
wouldn't that, with the same logic, make the whole distribution
inofficial? Why are we drawing a line there?

cheers!
