Pacman -Syu Failed -- Error: failed to commit Transaction (invalid...)
I just did another "pacman -Syu".
For the second time today, pacman updated itself. Than I did another "pacman -Syu". It tried to update abiword, bash, filesystem, initscripts, iputils and xorg-init. But it failed with this error message:
checking package integrity... done
Error: failed to commit Transaction (invalid or corrupted package)
Which package is the problem? What do I do to fix this?

Re: Pacman -Syu Failed -- Error: failed to commit Transaction (invalid...)
I just did a "pacman -S bash filesystem initscripts iputils xorg-xinit". That worked.
But when I tried a "pacman -S abiword", I got the same error message.
Are others having problems with the abiword package?

I guess we have to install the other packages one at a time until this is fixed 
. oh well, thank god there were only a few updates.

I suspected that there was an option to ignore a package, but i just didn't investigate it thoroughly.
