[SOLVED] Pacman upgrade failed because of gcc-libs

I have the multilib version of gcc installed in my 64 bit system. Ten minutes ago I tried to upgrade with pacman -Syu and I got:

:: I seguenti pacchetti dovrebbero essere aggiornati prima :
    pacman
:: Vuoi annullare l'operazione corrente
:: e aggiornare adesso questi pacchetti? [S/n] 

risoluzione delle dipendenze in corso...
ricerca dei conflitti in corso...
:: gcc-libs e gcc-libs-multilib vanno in conflitto. Vuoi rimuovere gcc-libs-multilib? [s/N] n
errore: sono stati rilevati dei conflitti irrisolvibili
errore: impossibile eseguire l'operazione richiesta (dipendenze in conflitto)
:: gcc-libs e gcc-libs-multilib vanno in conflitto

It is in italian, but basically it complains about a conflict between the installed gcc-libs-multilib and the needed gcc-libs. gcc-libs-multilib provides gcc-libs, so why this kind of error? I thought my mirror could be out of sync but I get the same error also using mirrors.kernel.org.
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks Allan, it worked. BTW, the upgrade didn't touch gcc-libs-multilib or any other gcc-related package, so I wonder why I got that error...

@karol: thanks, I didn't know the LC_ALL trick. I did search before posting, but I forgot to check the bugtracker. In my opinion, it is better to post such an issue on the forums and discuss a bit before opening a bug report, so I didn't think about the bugtracker.
