I think you have the wrong mental model of how the AUR works. You don’t enable it and then it works with pacman (which is what it sounds like you are thinking). Instead, it’s a repository of packages that require a different method of installation. This is described in section 2 of the wiki page you linked:
More detailed instructions are on that page.
However, if you want a pacman-like experience, you can install an AUR helper. You’ll still need to install the AUR helper via the steps above, though.
I was thinking of something similar to apt
non-free
repositories as I have used debian based distros so far.Thank you.
Yup, that makes sense. I hope you get it working!
