No, since I read the mail of the OP before the update was available here, I tested it, because I was curious, since nothing was mentioned by the news. After installing gptfdisk and readline, there was no way to login or to systemd-nspawn from another install. I needed to mv back the old ncurses libs, before I could continue.
Ok, I notice the weak point of my argumentation. I enforced a situation that unlikely happens when running an update, instead of installing packages individually.
However, installing just a few packages instead of all packages needs to be done, if the Internet connection get interrupted too often to make a complete upgrade in one step. So a note by the Arch news IMO still is useful.
