Help please, upgrading the package icu (75.1-1) breaks some dependencies.

If i try to update the package icu:

Code: [Select]
$~: sudo pacman -S icu

resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing icu (75.1-1) breaks dependency 'libicuuc.so=74-64' required by harfbuzz-icu
:: installing icu (75.1-1) breaks dependency 'libicuuc.so=74-64' required by raptor

It doesn't let me install other things i tried to upgrade my system but a lot of programs broke

I could not install a package (i don't remember which one) and i modify the config of pacman to download that package.

Do i need to remove those repos?

This is a brand new install and I haven't upgraded my system.

You can't safely update just the icu package and nothing else.  As noted, you have to -Syu.  Probably a quarter of your other base packages require icu and need to get updated.
