Any advice please.

Any advice please.
In general, you should use pacman -Syu instead of pacman -Syyu. The latter simply wastes bandwifth on the mirrors.
As for issue, it looks like a partially updated mirror perhaps?
Try again, if it still fails, try resorting your mirrors.

I have looked at the files in /usr/lib and I don’t have a libgpgme.so=11-64. All I have is.
/usr/lib/libgpgme.so
/usr/lib/libgpgme.so.11
/usr/lib/libgpgme.so.11.33.2

Yeah, that isn’t really the issue.
The issue is that it appears that the version of ostree in your mirror is built against a version of gpgme that is different than the one in the mirror at the time you tried to update.

I have fixed the problem. It was caused by having flatpak installed. I no longer have any flatpak apps so I uninstalled flatpack and ostree and the system will now update O,K,
a rule of thumb I live by is only use flatpak for programs you cannot get from native repo.
