Yikes!
from pacman.conf

# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
# enable the multilib repositories as required here.

#[multilib-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[multilib]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Fixed by uncommenteing multilab.

Unsure why commented out after years of not so

Thanx Scimmia
