i briefly broke my arch install by doing this
sudo pacman -S icu ttf-dejavu sqlitebrowser
it might work with other font packages but installing without ttf-dejau causes it to look like this (invisible text):
pacman: error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.so.76: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
you just need to follow these instructions which will lead you to running
curl -L -o pacman-static https://pkgbuild.com/~morganamilo/pacman-static/x86_64/bin/pacman-static chmod +x pacman-static sudo ./pacman-static -Syu pacman
