What does it mean for Alhp users? Will also Alhp repos be merged at the same time?

That's the plan, correct. I'm not sure about the timeline, since changes to the arch infrastructure mean changes to ALHP as well, so I need to figure that out when the time comes. Expect ALHP to be shipping no new updates for at least the same duration as Archlinux does not ship any updates.

Since the packages are hopefully only getting moved without being pkgrel bumped, it should be rather painless to move them from [community] to [extra].

People should probably also remove the [community] entry in the future, ~~but since it will be empty there will be no harm done if it stays in their config anyways~~.

I'll adjust README, configs and ALHP itself ideally at the same time as Arch does, but no guarantees on that one, we'll see how it goes.

Nice!

I was getting:

error: failed retrieving file 'community-x86-64-v3.db' from alhp.krautflare.de : The requested URL returned error: 404
error: failed retrieving file 'community-x86-64-v3.db' from mirror.sunred.org : The requested URL returned error: 404
error: failed retrieving file 'community-x86-64-v3.db' from alhp.panibrez.com : The requested URL returned error: 404
error: failed retrieving file 'community-x86-64-v3.db' from alhp.dev : The requested URL returned error: 404
error: failed retrieving file 'community-x86-64-v3.db' from mirrors.shanghaitech.edu.cn : The requested URL returned error: 404

So I removed:

[community-x86-64-v3]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/alhp-mirrorlist

from /etc/pacman.conf

as my understanding is, community will be now in extra, so it was already removed

Since the buildbot would have removed the community folders anyways, I decided to just rip off the bandage and remove them beforehand. It's just a minor edit in the pacman.conf and one would need to merge the new one anyways.
