+Generic script to mass compile a ton of PKGBUILDs. Currently configured to build plasma 6.
+To use: place a set of PKGBUILD names from https://packages.archlinux.org into packages.txt.
+The script will then attempt to recursively clone all of the packages, then use makepkg --printsrcinfo to resolve the dependencies.
+It will then attempt to clone the dependent packages, and if it encounters a package that doesn't exist, it will automatically timeout after 10 seconds.
+There's probably a MUCH better way of handling these things, but I am currently unaware of it.
+Feel free to contribute to my script if you want to improve it!
