From 34e2b35486e1a647225f3345855a0402c8476323 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shekhar Vaidya Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 13:12:38 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] docs: msdl-bin is published on AUR now, not just prepared README still said the AUR package was "prepared but not yet published" -- it went live today (msdl-bin 0.3.7-1, now that AUR registration reopened). Added it as a proper install method alongside winget/Homebrew, matching their existing formatting.
