It's normal that this happens from time to time with snapshots after a library update, it takes time to build packages, sign them and get them out to the mirrors. If you want to avoid this, watch source-changes and hold off on updating for a couple of days after a shared-library bump in base or X (commits involving shlib_version files). Increase "couple of days" in relation to the machine speed for slower arches.
