Orphaned gcc9, gcc9-libs

[LaplacesDemon43]

After the last update, I am getting this:

yay -Syyu

And on pamac GUI it’s saying, they are “explicitly installed”. I can’t find out the reason for this error.

…what do you mean?
Those packages are orphaned.
Not orphans like there are no dependencies … AUR orphans … ‘aurphans’ if you like - the packages are still in the AUR (and still installed on your system) but they currently have no maintainer.

( see for example page for gcc9: AUR (en) - gcc9 )
