[SOLVED] Update on old laptop failing

I have an old laptop that I haven't powered on for a while (maybe about a year now). When I try to run "sudo pacman -Syu", it's failing with the following error:

I don't mind performing a clean install, but is there a way to force the update (without doing a clean install)?
