Here's what happened in the [Reproducible Builds](https://reproducible-builds.org) effort between Sunday May 27 and Saturday June 2 2018:
* Allan McRae [released a new version](https://git.archlinux.org/pacman.git/tag/?h=v5.1.0) of [Arch Linux](https://www.archlinux.org/)'s [Pacman package manager](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/pacman) with many new features including supporting[SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH](https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/) and adding environment information to a `.BUILDINFO` file in order that the build may be reproduced at a later date.

This means future Archlinux package builds can be reproducible, finally fulfilling a [long-time "TODO"](https://www.archlinux.org/todo/buildinfo-rebuild/) for this project.
