Correction: there is "a blacklist", but it's only used to prevent
namespace conflicts for users who attempt to upload packages named the
same pkgname as a package in the binary repos.

It is correct to say we have never attempted to blacklist names which
"shouldn't be allowed to exist as packages because $person dislikes the
name".

"aur" isn't inherently a bad name, I could conceive of it being the name
for a package which installs the aur.archlinux.org software, though
"aurweb" would be an even better name. ;)


Indeed, a there are two blacklists, one that blacklists repo packages, so
they are not uploaded to the AUR. That one is updated automatically.

There's a second blacklist, but that one has no way to update, other than
through the DB, hence my confusion.

I think we should probably start adding a few packages to that list.
