We should assume that an Arch user would mention it, when using a version that is older than ten years. Arch Linux is a rolling release that follows upstream. This means it provides latest stable releases from upstream, without patches for most packages. The maintainers are selected, experienced people, but sure, they could make mistakes, too. https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/libsndfile/ By official Arch repositories, testing excluded + unofficial archaudio included + AUR included, this are the libsndfile related packages available: [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ yaourt -Ss libsndfile extra/libsndfile 1.0.27-1 [installed] A C library for reading and writing files containing sampled sound multilib/lib32-libsndfile 1.0.27-1 A C library for reading and writing files containing sampled sound (32-bit) aur/mingw-w64-libsndfile 1.0.27-1 (6) (0.05) A C library for reading and writing files containing sampled sound (mingw-w64) aur/python-wavefile 1.5-1 (1) (0.01) Pythonic libsndfile wrapper to read and write audio files. aur/python2-wavefile 1.5-1 (1) (0.01) Pythonic libsndfile wrapper to read and write audio files.
