Angband has been moved today out of the unofficial AUR repository and into the official Community repository; a repository maintained by Trusted Users only and fully supported and query-able by the Arch Linux packager, pacman.
This pretty much makes Angband immediately accessible to any Arch Linux user with the added guarantee that the package is maintained by a responsible and capable maintainer.
Arch is a bleeding-edge release, meaning only the most recent version of Angband will be available. This does not include nightly builds, but includes non stable releases. Which means, at the time of this writing, Angabnd 3.1.2v2 beta, is the version being distributed. Not the older, but stable, 3.0.9.
...
NPP Angband has been available in the Extra repository for Arch users for some time, IIRC. It somewhat saddened me the original Angband was not in the official repositories and could only be downloaded from upstream or through the unofficial and unsupported AUR repository. Thanks to Jakob Gruber that is no longer the case. Good work.
