Hi

Thank you again for all the great work managing and keeping
packages up to date. It is a significant amount of work and continues
to make Arch a really standout distro.

That said, periodically I check the repos for out of date packages.

I've selected a few to highlight based on age and my own view of
importance (no claim its a good view).

So, here's a few that might benefit from an update:
