[SOLVED] idconfig:File /usr/lib... after crash

I triggered updates today in hot weather, unfortunately laptop turned off when updating I know I know my bad
I was able to chroot and install linux-lts coz linux was not booting. I can boot to TTY but any try to update it says nothing to do, any try to reinstall anything what was updating during the crash says idconfig: File /usr/lib and hundreds of rows of text that it is empty, not checked.
I checked pacman.log and it crashed at the end of update, last rows are
upgraded smbclient
then tens of @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Is there any way how to force last packages ˜60 to update?
And I can work only as root sudo in user does do nothing

Please post the output of the following:

# pacman -Qkk 2>&1 | grep -Fv '0 altered files'

See pastebin for examples to pipe output from console directly to a pastebin.

Re: [SOLVED] idconfig:File /usr/lib... after crash

The first line fixes the missing or corrupted mtree files.  The second then reinstalls thse packages.

pacman -S --dbonly --gimp glslang gmic gnome-video-effect gperftools gst-editing-services gst-libav gst-plugin-gtk gst-plugin-pipewire gst-plugins-bad gst-plugins-bad-libs gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-base-libs gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-ugly gst-python gstreamer gstreamer-vaapi gtksourceview5 intel-media-driver libgme libixion libnm libnma libnma-common libnma-gtk4 libopenmpt liborcus libphonenumber libplacebo libpsl libpst libreoffice-fresh libxpm multipath-tools mypy networkmanager nvidia pciutils pipewire pulseaudio-alsa python-more-itertools python-setuptools python-trove-classifiers python-validate-pyproject rxvt-unerror shaderc smbclient sudo

Re: [SOLVED] idconfig:File /usr/lib... after crash

Unfortunately there is no log since it does not boot at all, it is stuck on Lenovo logo when I chose Linux in grub menu, normally Lenovo logo shows up for a moment then systemd with /dev/sda2 message is displayed and then gdm. Here is what I have in journalctl

Re: [SOLVED] idconfig:File /usr/lib... after crash

Progress :I found out it could not generate linux.preset and of course fallback initramfs was missing because in /etc/mkinitcpio.d was that file with 0B so I deleted it and regenerate.
The laptop looks like it is in state as yesterday.
THANK YOU master loqs
