[SOLVED] Keep receiving the same error when I try to install packages

Hello,

I keep receiving this:

[alessio@myhost ~]$ sudo pacman -S calibre

This happens with a lot of packages (linux-api-headers too for example) and makes it impossible for me to upgrade the system. I cleaned the cache, but the issue persists. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
