Re: pacman -Syu error: failed to commit transaction
Try "pacman -Syu --debug" or try a new mirror and "pacman -Syyu --debug". It should tell you where the problem lies.

Re: pacman -Syu error: failed to commit transaction
Sometimes it helps to delete the package in question from /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ if the package is corrupted so that pacman is forced to re-download. Else it will keep trying to use the cached package.
