Hello everybody, I got assigned to this issue here:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/62823
The users would like to have a notice in pre/post install/upgrade notifications via pacman .install files.
I am not a fan of spamming such news via pacman and I think the installation/upgrade process should be clean of such messages, but I don't have access to the news tool on our website as well.
I think this is a clear case of user intervention needed. So a post_install message (restricted to the update where intervention was needed) is appropriate. If the package was more widely used, we have the News section of the website. I don't think anything else is needed. Allan
