Ah, OK, phew, at least I did not screw up my system.
I will from now go with yay. Long live yay! YAY!!
Thanks to @pebcak , @sradjoker, @pebcak, @petsam, @freebird54 for your input and giving me yet a bit more understanding of Arch. I am truly overwhelmed by the quickness of help offered. Thanks a lot, guys.

This is a very important thing to know.
