also 'lib32-libtiff' and probably others - this is related to #3501

note that nothing is known to be broken because of this; but some multilib packages may not be installable until #3501 is resolved - as a workaround for now:

# pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/lib32-libtiff/lib32-libtiff-4.5.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/lib32-ncurses/lib32-ncurses-6.4_20230520-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
