[solved]pacman-db-upgrade and arch32 problem

Hi fellow archers,
after the recent pacman upgrade I decided to upgrade my arch32 packages and thus upgrade pacman.
AFAIK pacman-db-upgrade expects to receive the pacman_db_root to upgrade the database.
But if I launch

 pacman-db-upgrade /opt/arch32 

pacman tells me

 ==> ERROR: /opt/arch32 does not exist or is not a directory.

I tried quoting the path but it doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
