Update after a long time

Hi, after a year I turned on my old laptop. I tried to update it.
- I've created another pacman.conf
- I typed

pacman -Sy && pacman -S archlinux-keyring && pacman -Syyu

I have two problems:
1)

Could not resolve host: archlinux.polymorf.fr 

2) It prints a lot of errors like these

 installation of ncurses (6.5-3) interrupts dependencie 'ncurses=6.4' required by lib32-ncurses 

How can I fix it?

Re: Update after a long time

Do not use -yy w/o reason, you put undue load on the mirror and run a risk to trash your local database.

archlinux.polymorf.fr no (longer a) valid domain, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=304532 & https://archlinux.org/mirrorlist/
Then check the pacman.conf you created - might be missing the multilib repo?

Re: Update after a long time

thank you very much.
in pacman.conf I had to uncomment Multilib.
