Thought Experiment: Building and Running AUR Packages in Containers
My personal AUR helper builds AUR packages in an nspawn container. Thinking about scripting the automation of running them in dedicated nspawn container as well.

Recommended AUR Helper
I ended up writing my own AUR helper that sets up aurutils inside an nspawn container. It does prompt for inspecting and/or modifying git cloned files before building. However, it omits other typical AUR helper features like building/updating multiple packages at once. On the other hand, it transparently manages required gpg keys and AUR dependencies. https://github.com/Cody-Learner/aurch

Pacman Virtual Environment v0.1
I did it using a systemd nspawn container. I made my AUR helper as both an interesting scripting project and a proof of concept for myself. https://github.com/Cody-Learner/aurch

Gentoo vs Arch Linux
I switched from Arch to Gentoo because I ended up increasingly dependent upon AUR packages. That's not a big deal by itself, but I kept running into more and more frequent build failures with AUR packages that I couldn't sort out. This despite the fact that I used a very nice AUR package manager called Trizen. The final straw was when I started using hardware that, for some reason, didn't play well with Arch at install time but worked just fine with Gentoo.

Yay or Paru!!??

Input audio delay in zoom but not in obs
As a side note, I use the trizen AUR helper program to install AUR packages because one of it's nice features over yay, etc, is that it by default shows the content of the PKGBUILD and any other files (patches etc) for an AUR package, so you can see or edit them before installing a package.
