Just did a pacman -Syu and im getting a big problem with gnome-mag on upgrade.
I get this over and over again:
db_read: error: /var/lib/pacman/local/gnome-mag-0.13.2-1/depends: No such file or directory
then i can say Yes that i want to install whats up for install, and i'll get this:
checking package integrity... done.
loading package data... done.
checking for file conflicts... error: /var/lib/pacman/local/gnome-mag-0.13.2-1/files: No such file or directory
[[[this line over and over like 100 times]]] error: /var/lib/pacman/local/gnome-mag-0.13.2-1/files: No such file or directory
then after a while I will get what you see here in the pastebin: http://pastebin.archlinux.org/1171
i tried clearing the pacman cache with a pacman -Scc but that did nothing for me. any tips? its probably something small im overlooking, but can anyone point it out?

It seems that your local db is corrupted. To fix it, try:
# pacman -R gnome-mag
# pacman -S gnome-mag
if that doesn't work, remove the /var/lib/pacman/local/gnome-mag-0.13.2-1directory, and reinstall with:
# pacman -Sf gnome-mag

that did the trick
only thing is, im finding as time goes on that a whole lot of packages are corrupted after that update, so im coming across ones here and there that have to be removed and re-pacman -Sf'ed
thanks for the help

If I understand correctly what you mean by corrupted, you have other packages that gives the same errors as gnome-mag? If so, you might have filesystem/hard drive problems on the partition where your db is.
