I think pacman should at least warn you if the problem is enough to warrant a post on the arch website.

It will, if you install the informant package from the aur or the chaotic-aur unofficial repo.

Otherwise you can follow the advice in the wiki System maintenance page, which says to read the home page, or news RSS feed, or arch-announce mailing list before upgrading.
