Either installing `dotnet`, or installing all pending updates, broke `ungoogled-chromium` (won't find `libicui18n.so.73`)

Running chromium (in my install coming not from the chromium package but from the ungoogled-chromium one) from terminal prints just this one line:

/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.73: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Well package icu is at 74.2-1 (perhaps because either yesterday’s dotnet install or this morning’s update run made it so, or it was before, dunno) but so what? The info of what packages depend on it is clearly known in package-repo land, why would the .so.73 version of it just be wiped?

Coming from a rolling-but-non-Arch distro where this sort of thing hasn’t happened (to me) in 6 years, I’m stumped tbh — what the heck does one do in this situation? Go to the last file-system snapshot from whatever-long-ago install ran last before the one that broke things, and lose all the stuff that one did in one’s FS in-between? Go on a Silent Retreat for a month, waiting for all icu dependents to catch up (except meanwhile icu itself comes around with another sweet new update)?
