I just hit a bug with okular (rarely used it and just got surprised by this) [--snip--]
Did I miss an announcement or anything where I'd have noted these packages disappearance and uninstalled them?
Nah, I don't think so unless there's something special about these packages in particular, this is just the way pacman works AFAIUI.... but now that you mention it, it might a good idea to have pacman mention orphaned packages like e.g. 'apt' does. (OTOH, maybe it would be too costly to do so every time it's run. Of course one could always set up a monthly cron job to remind about packages that are orphaned.) Regards,
