I checked the binaries on my laptop, and which packages owned the packages, of those, several, including tiffdiff, belonged to AUR packages and so not the responsibility of Arch maintainers.

The only Arch-maintained packages I found affected were lm_sensors, fcitx5-configtool, and harfbuzz

hi.  after doing this `pacman -Syu base-devel` (and re-booting), a number of executables can't find some (out dated?) dynamic libraries.

below are two lists:
- one shows the affected binaries;
- the other, just the list of un-found dynamic libraries.

any thoughts?  (sorry for e-mail formatting; my editor/e-mail program of choice is among the victims! :)
(and, sorry for spurious sending to announce list; presumably that was squashed.)

cheers, Greg
