Description:

The latest xorg-apps 7.6-1 functionality has been replaced by a set of new packages.
The following binaries are no longer provided in the new set of packages:

/usr/bin/xclock
/usr/bin/xmessage

There is still a gxmessage tool (but GTK2+ based).

In my own computer this at least breaks some xdm-based login managers from the AUR.
This task depends upon

The missing utilities from xorg-apps have been added to the repository as standalone applications. They have been deprecated upstream, so I don't want to add them to the transition/group package.
