Unresolvable dependencies after switching to testing branch

It has been a while since the stable branch got updated so I wanted to try the testing branch.

As described in the Manjaro Wiki it should be straight forward.

Most packages got updated but these remain due to unresolvable dependencies:

sudo pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases…
core is up to date
extra is up to date
multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade…
resolving dependencies…
warning: cannot resolve “libicuuc.so=78-64”, a dependency of “gspell”

:: The following packages cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
gspell  harfbuzz-icu  lib32-audit  lib32-expat  lib32-libcap  lib32-libelf  lib32-pcre2  raptor

:: Do you want to skip the above packages for this upgrade? \[y/N\]

When switching branch - you need to force fetching metadata by using a double -y

sudo pacman -Syyu

Thx, this solved the problem. May be this should be added to the Manjaro Wiki?

       After all operations ALWAYS syncronize and update your system with
