MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ros-arch-deps [2]: Unmaintained metapackage "for building ROS" (Robot Operating System). Last updated in 2021. Not stated, but it is for "ROS 1". Not useful to keep: pulls in several deprecated, discontinued tools that are no longer used in the ROS toolchain and might even be broken. Current ROS distributions are referred to as "ROS 2". There is a relevant metapackage on AUR for building that: ros2-arch-deps. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ros-arch-deps/
