the download link is actually https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-archlinux/releases/download/120.0.6099.216-1/ungoogled-chromium-120.0.6099.216-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst, not https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-archlinux/releases/download/120.0.6099.216-2/ungoogled-chromium-120.0.6099.216-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
not the first time this happens :D
The idea of dynamic libraries is that not every binary has to include its own set, saving resources and in theory making bug fixing (security patching)easier because it can be done centrally without touching every binary. Is it possible for an executable to be more relaxed about the library version, i.e. to require just 7.X instead of specifically 7.3? As long as the ABI does not change from 7.3 to 7.4 that should work.
What about making ICU be linked statically?
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.73: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
It seems a rebuild against icu 74 is necessary:
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.73: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Aborting...

I had the same error and Ungoogled Chrome wouldn't launch:
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libdav1d.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
A temporary fix was creating a symlink to the new lib:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libdav1d.so.7 /usr/lib/libdav1d.so.6
I had to downgrade ungoogled-chromium-bin, ffmpeg, dav1d, libavif, libheif while the rebuild not happens...
When trying to launch Chromium I get the following error
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libdav1d.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Its most likely due to the fact the current version was linked against the old dav1d version.
This is why it is recommended to use source packages, in which the package is built against the Arch Linux system libraries, instead of upstream building (and linking) against other versions of libraries provided by distributions such as Ubuntu or Debian (which is common for github actions) which often do not use the latest versions.
Try installing ungoogled-chromium instead, although this takes 5-6 hours to build on modern hardware...

Please note that normally it's not required to flag this package as out of date. I usually tag releases in the main ungoogled-chromium repository and update the arch packaging right afterwards.
If the package hasn't updated after an ungoogled-chromium release GitHub Actions might still be building or the ungoogled-chromium patchset got updated for non Linux platforms only to match their upstream release cycle
