Artix has its own set of official repositories which must take precedence over any other 3rd party ones.

Update: It seems that world/libphonenumber indeed requires libprotobuf.so=28-64. We are currently investigating this.

Try installing libphonenumber now, it should be propagated to mirrors.
Thanks again!

Can you post /etc/pacman.conf (use https://paste.artixlinux.org)? Make sure you aren't ignoring packages.
https://paste.artixlinux.org/d3b1479c

I don't use `pamac` but sometimes I look there for packages-name like a graphical `yay`.

`archlinux-appstream-data` is not part of AUR which report the error in my former post, but maybe i' wrong.

IgnorePkg   = archlinux-appstream-data
That's the source of the problem. You should comment out this line. Don't ignore packages.

Edit: Python 2 is indeed deprecated and any python2-* packages should be uninstalled. Other than that, those other packages are from AUR (=unsupported by Artix).

Which command let reload `pacman.conf` after line is commented out or deleted?

I know that AUR-packages are not supported by Artix, could you anyway make a suggestion or have i to start a thread and where to start it?

I really don't know if it applies here, it's not clear to me if these are normal expected AUR updates for things you have installed or not, but you have to be a bit careful when an AUR helper starts suddenly building stuff from the AUR on updates that it had not been doing before. What can happen is that you might have a package installed which is removed from the repos so it no longer gets updated. The AUR helper could fall back to looking for updates in the AUR, but the package might be obsolete and no longer needed by the system, and can be safely removed. So you need to try and research the situation on a case by case basis to try and keep tabs on what's going on. There are AUR packages that have genuine build or runtime requirements for older versions of things including Python 2 incidentally.

How can I update/upgrade single packages from AUR?
Of course is not my intention to install deprecated packages like py2.
Here the list without package-name after `yay` :
Code: [Select]
3  aur/conan                1.43.0-2       -> 1.43.2-1
2  aur/kotatogram-desktop   1.4.5-2        -> 1.4.5-3
1  aur/yandex-browser-beta  21.9.1.600_1-1 -> 21.11.3.954_1-1

and with package-name after `yay`:
Code: [Select]
aur/conan 1.43.2-1 (+54 2.06) (Installed: 1.43.0-2)
aur/kotatogram-desktop 1.4.5-3 (+10 1.44) (Installed: 1.4.5-2)
aur/yandex-browser-beta 21.11.3.954_1-1 (+78 1.03) (Installed: 21.9.1.600_1-1)
maybe calling `yay + package-name` for installing latest version?

In /etc/pacman.conf you could have a line like this for example (this is just an example, probably you wouldn't want to block updates on all these):
IgnorePkg = conan kotatogram-desktop yandex-browser-beta
then none of those three packages would be updated on -Syu upgrades. To update them, you would have to do "yay -S conan" or remove the conan entry from the IgnorePkg line (or substitute the name of any other "ignored" package) before running -Syu again. So that's how you can arrange it so some packages will only be updated when you want, while others can be updated as normal.
You can also tell yay to not update AUR packages, as explained in the README.md:
How can I tell Yay to act only on AUR packages, or only on repo packages?
yay -{OPERATION} --aur yay -{OPERATION} --repo
