@doctor: Yes using arch GNU/Linux, follow the source instructions not the package if
that is your case if indeed using source/git clone then make sure irb
and your env is setup correctly with their recomended versions of
node,ruby etc

Dependencies

# External dependencies have not changed since v4.3.0, the compatible Ruby, PostgreSQL, Node, Elasticsearch and Redis versions are the same, that is:
   
  - Ruby: 3.1 or newer
  - PostgreSQL: 12 or newer. PostgreSQL versions 14.0
          to 14.3 are not supported as they contain a critical data-corruption
          bug (see v4.3.0 release notes)
  - Elasticsearch (recommended, for full-text search): 7.x
         (OpenSearch should also work)
  - LibreTranslate (optional, for translations): 1.3.3 or newer
  - Redis: 4 or newer
  - Node: 18 or newer
  - ImageMagick (optional if using libvips): 6.9.7-7 or newer
  - libvips (optional, instead of ImageMagick): 8.13 or newer
