Hello,
I have tried to install qemu-base, but it fails at parsing dependencies for qemu-system-x86:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
resolving dependencies...
warning: cannot resolve "edk2-ovmf", a dependency of "qemu-system-x86"
warning: cannot resolve "seabios", a dependency of "qemu-system-x86"
warning: cannot resolve "qemu-system-x86", a dependency of "qemu-base
')
I've looked it up on the packages page and both packages are not available in any architecture.
In the PKGBUILD seabios and edk2 are added explicitly as dependencies to qemu-system-x86, although neither of them are actually required in the makedepends and are not listed in the package page https://archlinuxarm.org/packages/aarch64/qemu-system-x86, however pacman does require them:

Is this just a dependency mismatch or is qemu not currently available for archlinux?
I am running the latest rpi-linux kernel on a headless Raspberrypi 3B+.
