Corrupted files I think

I think I have some corrupted files. Any time I install something with pacman I get these errors:

[2014-03-08 14:15] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libutempter.so is em
pty, not checked.
[2014-03-08 14:15] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libXpm.so.4 is empty
, not checked.
[2014-03-08 14:15] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libutempter.so.0 is
empty, not checked.
[2014-03-08 14:15] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libXpm.so.4.11.0 is
empty, not checked.
[2014-03-08 14:15] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libXpm.so is empty,
not checked.
[2014-03-08 14:15] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libutempter.so.1.1.6
is empty, not checked.

This has been happening for a long time now and its rather annoying. Now I believe it is causing problems when I'm trying to build a C++ library and im missing libXpm.so.4. I think at one point I had many more of these errors printed at once, but some have gone away. Today I installed a few packages and one found that libXaw.so.7 was corrupted and I had to force pacman and it fixed it. It used to be printed as the above are but isnt anymore. Now my c compiler tells me libXpm is needed for libXaw. How can I find out which packages these belong to and reinstall them? Or fix it some other way?

$ pkgfile /usr/lib/libXpm.so.4
extra/libxpm
$ pkgfile /usr/lib/libutempter.so
extra/libutempter
