On: Arch Linux AUR Repository Found to Contain Malware

[Foxboron]

>simple-mtpfs

Not maintained (last commit in 2016). So that will be something low on the priority list.

>btrfs

The dedupe tool looks interesting. Noted on my todo.

>closure-compiler

Was dropped from the repository. Probably because of the lack of an maintainer.

I see! Time for me to start looking for a new method of transfering files from android then, thanks for the heads up

There's a very nice open source sshd daemon based on dropbear that I use. Doesn't require root or anything. I use it for pretty much all my file transfer needs. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.galexander...

Honestly I've always found MTP to be incredibly slow and sometimes unreliable.

I personally just install termux, which allows you to install openssh. Run sshd and then you can use rsync or scp or sshfs or other from the host PC.

KDE Connect allows transferring individual files or browsing the Android filesystem, in addition to all its other goodies.
