The metis package is coming from the AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/metis
AUR packages use a file called a PKGBUILD which has instructions to build the package. In this case, the metis PKGBUILD has the line
Code:
arch=(x86_64)meaning it only supports the x86_64 architecture.
If you want to build it you can try from the command line
Code:
sudo pamac build metisThen when prompted press 'e' to edit the package build. You can edit the line above to
Code:
arch=(any)then see how you go. You might need to make further changes to get the build to succeed on arm64.
Personally I would try to configure my update utility not to automatically upgrade from the AUR.
If you want to update just the pacman packages you can run
Code:
sudo pacman -Syu
