How do non explicitly installed package dependencies get updated in Arch? Do they update independently of the package that is dependent on them, or do they get updated when the parent package updates? Or is it some secret third thing?

Thanks!

Adding to this: individual package updates are not supported. Always update your whole system, unless you know what you are doing.
