Is there no need to modify any build script in order to prevent building QEMU trad (and thus rombios), or it has never been built on Arch in the first place?

Qemu trad is off by default now, but the ./configure script will sanity check too. Also, Archlinux is nonblocking because it's a rolling distro and periodically breaks older trees because of an updated GCC. > >> Signed-off-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> > Reviewed-by: Roger Pau Monné <roger.pau@citrix.com> Thanks. ~Andrew

And it turns out to explode in stubdom because newlib has K&R functions which the new GCC doesn't tolerate. I'll need to do a prep patch before this rebuild is safe. ~Andrew

These packages have moved out of main to AUR, and are not easily accessable any more. Drop them, because they're only needed for RomBIOS which is very legacy these days.
