Please let me know what you think.
I don't think anyone really cared about unofficial tools in the past -
the concern was about including the AUR auto-building tools in
community.
+1 - as long as it does not do automatic AUR package installs, there is
not problems from me. You are not the first to include a tool like this
in [community] (e.g. arch-backup).
Although, as Xavier pointed out, I want to eventually get useful scripts
like your pkgfile script into pacman-contrib.
