Aura is a multilingual package manager for Arch Linux that extends pacman with AUR support and additional features like package downgrading and system sanity checks. It accepts all pacman operations as-is and adds dedicated operations such as -A for AUR packages.
Use cases
- install AUR packages from the command line
- downgrade packages to previous versions on Arch Linux
- manage pacman repository packages with a superset CLI
- run system sanity checks and package analysis
- use a package manager localized in many languages
When to choose
- you use Arch Linux and want seamless pacman-compatible AUR support
- you need reliable package downgrading and snapshot-style rollback
- you want a multilingual CLI with detailed man pages and documentation
When to avoid
- you are not on Arch Linux or an Arch-based distribution
- you prefer a GUI package manager
- you only need basic pacman functionality without AUR
