News Draft: waydroid >= 1.5.4-3 update may require manual intervention

[George Hu]

The `waydroid` package prior to version `1.5.4-2` (including `aur/waydroid`) creates byte-compiled Python files (.pyc) at runtime which were untracked by pacman. This issue has been fixed in 1.5.4-3, where byte-compiling these files is now done during the packaging process.

As a result, the upgrade may overwrite the unowned files created in previous versions. If you encounter errors like the following during the update: waydroid: /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/__pycache__/__init__.cpython-313.pyc exists in filesystem waydroid: /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/actions/__pycache__/__init__.cpython-313.pyc exists in filesystem waydroid: /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/actions/__pycache__/app_manager.cpython-313.pyc exists in filesystem You can safely remove the conflicting files by running the following command before upgrading: find /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/ -type d -name __pycache__ -exec sudo rm -rf '{}' +
