Is there a way to get notified, when an #ArchLinux package is updated?

Is there a way to get notified, when an #ArchLinux package is updated?

Sometimes I'm eagerly awaiting an upgrade to a specific package. Is there a way to get a notification of some sort, once the update is available?

In this case I'm waiting for thunderbird and wine-nine.

Not sure if you could do this by polling repo with RSS reader with specific parameters. I don't know how but quick googling around that has been suggested previously.
- Hi there! The links in your response are not clickable for Lemmy users, here are the clickable versions: !archlinux@lemmy.ml, !archlinux@lemmy.world, !archlinux@discuss.tchncs.de
You could keep an eye on the PKGBUILDs. For Thunderbirds, for example, you could use the following in a RSS reader:
https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/thunderbird/-/commits/main/PKGBUILD
