Arch updated to fmtlib 10 recently. That means all packages build against fmtlib need be recompiled against the new fmtlib version. But alpha 2 isn't compatible with fmtlib 10 so you have to switch to master which has the necessary changes.

Thank you, will try.

Kodi master should build with fmt10 after #23453 and Nexus should build when #23571 is merged.
