The Arch Linux team has once again been forced to respond to a distributed denial-of-service attack targeting its AUR repository infrastructure. As a result, DDoS protection has been enabled for aur.archlinux.org to help mitigate the ongoing disruption.

While this measure helps keep the AUR website accessible, it has introduced a significant side effect: pushing to the AUR is currently not possible.

I installed arch to a VM yesterday for some stuff and for the life of me I couldn't figure out why I couldn't get Paru or Yay going and well...there ya have it. spent like an hour trying to figure out why they both weren't working.

It's a good habit when if you're hitting something weird and it just doesn't work to check a status page. It's saved me so much time over the years. Here it is for Arch AUR
