pacman: error while loading shared libraries: libunistring.so.2

Hi,

after the latest update of libunistring pacman can't find that library anymore

pacman: error while loading shared libraries: libunistring.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

A quick fix to this is

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libunistring.so.5 /usr/lib/libunistring.so.2

Yep. Me bad. I pushed some modules manually to make 'make' work again, and I killed the pacman/libcurl chain..
Should be fixed soon.
Also, I can recommend to install 'pacman-static' from the AUR to have a fallback for pacman. :-)

I have to push openssl 3.0.7 now (along with openssl-1.1). Compared to upstream there might be some breaking things now..

Maybe I should put an anouncement about openssl 3.0.7?
