virt-manager package 1.2KB / mirrors corrupted???

After some update I noticed that nothing happened when I clicked virt-manager icon nor when I run manually, than I saw that the package was like 1.2KB containing only 3 files:
.INSTALL
.MTREE
.PKGINFO

md5sum virt-manager-1.2.0-2-any.pkg.tar.xz
39cb6c5129a35658adaf05ac7937f60e  virt-manager-1.2.0-2-any.pkg.tar.xz

I tried different mirrors but it's the same.
What's going on?

Re: virt-manager package 1.2KB / mirrors corrupted???

It seems like an odd choice by the maintainer, but it appears that virt-manager is an empty package by choice, and the actual package is virt-install:

I'd open a bug report about it.

Don't bother opening a bug report, as this is intentional, it's by definition not a bug.

Are you sure it's not an oversight? It seems like there should be something in the virt-manager package, otherwise why not just make virt-install replace it?

Good to know, that was strange but yet nothing happens when I launch virt-manager (this is what the log says)

How do I install the settings schema?

Re: virt-manager package 1.2KB / mirrors corrupted???

Ok, found the solution:
run as root:

glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
