[SOLVED] Problem with "terminus-font" "Maximum file size exceeded"

Hi. I'm quite new to linux entirely so bear with me please, thanks.

I downloaded artix-plasma-runit-20230814-x86_64.iso weeks ago and installed it into a virtual machine on Virtual Box. I started by updating the system using
Code: [Select]
sudo pacman -Syu
and everything went fine until it was the upgrading phase where the package terminus-font just decided it's not going to get installed today and gave me the errors available in the screenshots attached with this post. I searched for that maximum size error but the answers were not clear.
What to do now? I'm ready to provide more info if needed!

It worked! Thank you very much for your time and help. May I ask how did you troubleshoot it to be that sure that this is the solution?
