Details

notmuch-0.30 got new python bindings based on cffi.
As of now they don't work in archlinux:

>>> import notmuch2
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/notmuch2/__init__.py", line 45, in <module>
from notmuch2 import _capi
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_cffi_backend'

After installing python-cffi the import works:
>>> import notmuch2
>>>

notmuch should depend on python-cffi.
Probably it's enough to make it optional in case the user really wants to use the new bindings.
This task depends upon
