Description:

Each time I upgrade my system with `pacman -Suy`, Firefox crashes. I suspect that the crash is related to hooks rather than the upgrading of packages themselves. I've narrowed the search down to the following hooks:

/usr/share/libalpm/hooks/30-systemd-udev-reload.hook
/usr/share/libalpm/hooks/30-systemd-daemon-reload.hook
/usr/share/libalpm/hooks/30-systemd-update.hook

In the last crash, the crash happened while hook 90-mkinitcpio-install.hook was running, and the previous three hooks had already run.

Additional info:
* Package versions: firefox 119.0-1 and 119.0.1-1, pacman 6.0.2-8
* Pacman log that matches the crashes (see attachment), the last crash happened at 2023-11-08T20:21:39+0000.

Steps to reproduce:

- Update your system (`pacman -Suy`)

Definitely not a firefox packaging issue. Probably related to  FS#77789 .
