AFAIR, scapy3k was a python3 fork of scapy. Now that scapy supports python3, it has been added to the conflicts array of scapy3k. You can probably safely remove scapy3k as nothing depends on it in the Arch repos; check your system.

What I can't attest to is how well they cooperate with assistive technologies, and my knowledge on the subject is about 25 years out of date. However, at the end of the day there's always GNOME, which seems to have more resources than anyone with regards to accessibility and is actively tested with screen readers and Braille displays. Of course it also isn't exactly known for being "light", but there it is.

Re: [arch-general] Why doesn't svntogit/{community, packages} describe cloning (or download) of individual packages?

Actually (aside from what you've already been told about the nature of the repository and the opportunity to change the wiki), you could have discovered this from the very same place you ostensibly learned about the switch to asp -- from arch-announce, where 'asp export pkgname' is currently plastered at the top of the archlinux.org feed. So not only is there very much a mention of it, it's in exactly the one place we're expected to monitor for distro changes.
