Errors while upgrading texlive-bin

Upgrading texlive-bin today threw a bunch of errors:

 done.
 (logs are under /var/lib/texmf/web2c/<engine>/<formatname>.log)

Is this anything I should be concerned about? I'm not familiar enough with the inner-workings of texlive to make sense out of these errors.

Re: Errors while upgrading texlive-bin

Install texlive-bin again and the errors should disappear.

pacman -S  texlive-bin

Re: Errors while upgrading texlive-bin

Yes, but only after merging the updmap.cfg.pacnew.
