ldd - libraries for deficient applications

As noted , there are times when an app is missing a necessary library, which is a PITA.

The process is to LDD the for the missing lib, and then pacman -F to find which package has the lib. In this case, the poster used.

$ ldd /usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertortlabel

...

libcrypt.so.1 => not found

...
$ pacman -F libcrypt.so.1 # to find which package to install
