Foreign packages after updating

(5/7) pug.hook
:: Processing gists update...
(6/7) Checking which packages need to be rebuilt
foreign arjun
foreign python-blessings
foreign python-bloodhound
foreign python-dnsrecon
(7/7) Updating the desktop file MIME type cache...

Experiment at-least.

Re: Foreign packages after updating

foreign packages are packages not found in any repo listed in your pacman.conf, typically aur packages.

That looks like the output of the libalpm rebuild-detector.hook from the rebuild-detector package .

If that's correct one or more of the dependencies of the listed packages have changed and you need to rebuild each of the listed packages.

Re: Foreign packages after updating

rebuild-detector nomally is more explicit in its messages. If something needs to be rebuilt, it will tell you so.

Re: Foreign packages after updating

And...  Is there a question?

You've roped two other seasoned members into speculating and trying to help you when there isn't even a problem.  You've only shown seemingly normal / expected output from a alpm-hook you deliberately addedd to your system.

Re: Foreign packages after updating

Oh, I didn't follow up. There wasn't any issue which is blocking me from using my system. This was more of a new thing, I wanted to report or mainly understand what this indicates so that any issues in the future can be forecasted.
