Of the new versions, I see only the test and unstable versions.:
OK, but why aren’t they in GUI pamac?
That’s I can’t install testing 4.14.4-1

I switched to the test branch by editing the configuration
/etc/pacman-mirrors.com
by changing the line
Branch = arm-stable
on
Branch = arm-testing
Then I updated the mirrors.
But the new version of Telegram Desktop does not appear.
Then I executed the command
pacman-mirrors --api --set-branch testing
but there is no new version Telegram Desktop either
AFAIK, this has to be run with sudo:
sudo pacman-mirrors --api --set-branch testing
And then do a package-list update:
sudo pacman -Sy
Usually, I think it’d be -Syu but I don’t think you want to update your existing software. Although, that’s probably not the end of the world if you do…

I don’t usually use sudo, I use su -

I have always used a stable branch.
To install the new Telegram Desktop I switched to the test branch.
Next:
# pacman -Syu telegram-desktop

I was horrified by this eerie sight, because it means that my stable system will turn into a test one 
I absolutely do not want this!
Therefore, I have returned to the stable branch and will wait for someone to finally transfer the new Telegram Desktop from the test branch to the stable one.

eh…
Then stay on Stable and wait patiently.

And when you get the same packages in week or two it will be fine?

A little bit wrong. When I need to talk on, I will turn on the old gluttonous chest on i3 and talk on Telegram Desktop.
Because traditionally unhurried and conservative Debian, who has always lagged behind Mangaro in terms of the novelty of the versions, this time beat him in the new version Telegram Desktop.
It’s funny and sad, of course, but this is all because of someone who is in no hurry to update Telegram Desktop for ARM.
O yes, they will relate to the stable branch, and I will be calm
No - Arch Linux Arm has done that for you 
That’s is one of the reasons I use unstable branch.
I mean - if ten thousand - likely more - Arch Linux users can do it - so can I.

So you are a brave person, because you are not afraid to ruin your system 
But your system has not been maintained. The community repo was dropped on all architectures 8 months ago already.
Please tend to your .pacnew files. You can find out how many of them you have with…

You neither included much of a description nor provided a clear and concise summary in the topic title. I’ve edited your topic title to reflect the issue.

I’m sorry, but then I’ll have to temporarily return to Debian 
If you’re that desperate, then you might want to read this little essay below…

I enjoyed reading your essay 
But you made a little mistake. I am not beginner to Debian and I am well versed in it.
I would also be able to gradually master Manjaro. But the problem is not in the Manjaro itself, but in Manjaro ARM - it often lacks some necessary applications, because few people are concerned about converting x86_64 to ARM 
I couldn’t wait any longer for the stable operation of Telegram to be fixed, and I was forced to go back to Debian
Thank you all very much for your benevolence, responsiveness and effective help!
