Getting "Error: Failed to prepare transaction: could not find database" while trying to install icaclient package

I am new to Arch linux/Manjaro way of installing packages.

I wanted to install Citrix Workspace App and tried the below command from the command line,

pamac build icaclient

It went on cloning the dependent repositories and finally gave the below error,

...
Cloning ninja-samurai build files...
Checking ninja-samurai dependencies...
Cloning re2c-git build files...
Checking re2c-git dependencies...
Cloning asciidoc-git build files...
Checking asciidoc-git dependencies...
Error: Failed to prepare transaction: could not find database
Error: Failed to prepare transaction: could not find database

Edit build files ? [y/N] 

Transaction cancelled.

Am I missing something?

I am using the latest Manjaro stable distribution (pasting the system info below)

I executed sudo pacman -Syy and then repeated the above command. This time the install has gone ahead without issues.
