Nss 3.51.1-1 update will need a manual intervention

Saw this in arch-dev-public, pasting it:

The nss and lib32-nss packages prior to version 3.51.1-1 were missing a
soname link each. This has been fixed in 3.51.1-1, so the upgrade will need
to overwrite the untracked files created by ldconfig. If you get any of
these errors

    nss: /usr/lib/p11-kit-trust.so exists in filesystem
    lib32-nss: /usr/lib32/p11-kit-trust.so exists in filesystem

when updating, use

    pacman -Syu --overwrite /usr/lib\*/p11-kit-trust.so

to perform the upgrade.

Got it 10 minutes ago on my Archlinux + testing main installation.
