Python3-aur

aurquery <packagename>	search for a package
aurpkglist	list all aur packages

packer is great when it works, but occasionally you'll need to upgrade packer, or you'll run into a package that packer has trouble installing (or you'd rather just compile it yourself). python3-aur is amazing, it gives you all of the information that you need to download and compile packages yourself.

NOTE at present, the python module AUR only supports python3.4. You can install python 3.4 from the AUR, and modify /usr/bin/aurquery's header.
