/usr/bin/postgres: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.67:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
no data was returned by command ""/usr/bin/postgres" -V"

Well, that seems pretty straightforward: you don't have libicui18n,
or at least you don't have the right version of it.
Does
ls /usr/lib*/libicui18n*
show anything? I don't know anything about blackarch but on
a Fedora 32 box I see
/usr/lib64/libicui18n.so.65
/usr/lib64/libicui18n.so.65.1
If you don't see anything, perhaps you just need to install libicu.
If you do but it's not version 67, then you have a version-skew
problem, and you might have to recompile Postgres to make it work
with the libicu version that your distro provides.
Either way, I wonder how you got into this situation. Any reasonable
package manager would have insisted on installing a compatible libicu
version along with Postgres. Did you override such warnings at install?

No, I don't.
Idont no I use thunar as file manager
So how do I install libcu
And things the right way

As a workaround, "pacman -S icu" would do that for you. If you find
another missing library, the pkgfile command will find the package to
install for the file for you.
