EXTRA REPO ROLLS OUT FIVE PACKAGE UPDATES OVERNIGHT

Arch Linux pushed routine maintenance across the extra repository, touching everything from virtualization tools to audio conversion.

The extra-any architecture saw updates to soundconverter 4.1.3-2 [1] and solaar 1.1.20-2 [2], both receiving point releases that suggest bug fixes rather than feature work. On the x86_64 side, onetbb jumped to 2023.1.0-1 [3], a major version bump that will matter for any package depending on Intel's threading library. Virt-manager picked up a rebuild to 5.1.0-4 [4], signaling potential dependency updates in the virtualization stack. Remmina landed at 1:1.4.43-3 [5], addressing what appears to be a packaging issue rather than upstream changes. None of these carry breaking change signals, but the onetbb major version is worth a rebuild pass if you maintain packages against it.
