Pacom: New AUR helper with support for private packages and version lock
There's a section on readme for how version locking means: https://github.com/kriansa/pacom#package-version-locking -- essentially, once you have approved a package to your local db, you can uninstall and reinstall it whenever you want and you won't be prompted to review it again (unless you want to update it or it's a VCS pkg). Then you can use that local db to distribute among other Arch instances you use, for instance.

Testing out pacman package manager on Linux Mint
Nope, I actually compiled pacman from source and turned it into a .Deb package. See here: https://github.com/ThePoorPilot/pacman-utils. It's more designed for integration, but it's still fun to mess with pacman
