How do I check to see if that's the case for me too?

As I showed above, I also had wine-nine, but I can't tell if that log is listing all the times wine-nine was updated or all the times I updated with wine-nine installed.

I'm leaning toward the latter given it was just listing wine-nine 0.10-1 repeatedly, implying it never updated past that in the dangerous period, right?

    I am not at home (and work is stuck on windows) so I can't verify with 100% certainty... But I believe what I did was pacman -Qm to list the AUR packages. Then I did pacman -Qi <package_name> to list the details about why it was installed, what dependencies it has, what depends on it, and when it was last updated. Mine showed like 2 years prior (whenever I installed the OS) because there hadn't been any update to it in years (until the attack). If your date for last updated is recently, you probably have a problem.
