I was playing with namcap in my cache:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ for i in /var/cache/pacman/pkg/* ; do namcap $i >>
~/badpackages.log ; done

I know a lot of these warnings are well known (like apache's
non-standard file locations, or dependencies from gcc), but others are
not. Could such a file be helpful to devs? Should I post it, maybe
grepping here and there?

Also, could it be a good (and possible) thing, creating a db to store
all exceptions, such that non-needed warnings are not displayed? The
main difficulty I see in this is distinguishing the official packages
from "tainted" personalized or malicious ones...
