Hi Sean,
thanks for the feedback! Turns out it was something else: the flashrom package on Arch (v1.2) doesn't appear to work with the update.
Installing flashrom-git from the AUR (v1.4 -- don't be fooled by the version in the title) solved the issue and the update worked nicely.
Maybe putting this piece of information into the update README could also help others :)
Enjoy!
I think this covers it already
