The recent move of the bootloader and firmware packages to alarm seems to have orphaned them. For example, checking for orphan packages per the wiki is done via:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -Qdtq')
After the recent update wherein these have been moved to alarm these are now coming up as orphaned meaning no package needs them, but I'm pretty sure that removing these would render the system unbootable:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', ':: Replace raspberrypi-firmware-bootloader with alarm/raspberrypi-bootloader? [Y/n]
:: Replace raspberrypi-firmware-bootloader-x with alarm/raspberrypi-bootloader-x? [Y/n]
:: Replace raspberrypi-firmware-tools with alarm/raspberrypi-firmware? [Y/n]
')
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '% pacman -Qdtq
raspberrypi-bootloader-x
raspberrypi-firmware-examples')
