pacman error

I get this error every time that I run pacman

could not open file /var/lib/pacman/community//hexter-0.6.1-2/depends

I never even installed hexter. What's the problem here?

Re: pacman error

There's a minor corruption in your pacman db. pacman -Syy will force a complete refresh, and you should be OK after that.

Information about your installed packages is in /var/lib/pacman/local - everything else in /var/lib/pacman is about the packages available in the repos.
