Extra & Current repos updated, databases not

[root@localhost proteus]# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
:: current is up to date
:: extra is up to date
:: unstable is up to date
:: community is up to date

So says pacman. But...

[root@localhost proteus]# pacman -Ss gnome-keyring
extra/gnome-keyring 0.4.2-1
    GNOME Password Manager

Current version in repo is 0.4.3-1.

[root@localhost proteus]# pacman -Ss kernel26mm
extra/kernel26mm 2.6.12.mm2-1
    The Linux Kernel and modules (IDE support) [mm Kernel]

Version in repo is 2.6.13.rc2.mm1-1.

[root@localhost proteus]# sudo pacman -Ss hicolor-icon-theme
extra/hicolor-icon-theme 0.5-1
    Freedesktop.org Hicolor icon theme

Repo version is 0.8-1.

The same is the case with all the other packages that were updated yesterday and today...

Re: Extra & Current repos updated, databases not

Shouldn't be a problem, since I use ftp.archlinux.org. Still, I'll try anyway...

Re: Extra & Current repos updated, databases not

Nope, useless. Removing current, extra, community, and unstable in /var/lib/pacman and doing pacman -Syu doesn't work either. :x
