Identifying corrupted/invalid packages

Hello,
  Is there a way to pinpoint which packages are corrupted/invalid? I have a somewhat flaky internet connection which sometimes causes a few packages to be corrupted; whenever I do a `pacman -Syu`, I get presented with the following error (e.g.):

> (192/192) checking package integrity                                                                 
> error: failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package)
> Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

The problem is that I _really_ do not want to be clearing my entire package cache and downloading all the packages again? I haven't been able to find a flag that will print out this information. `-v` doesn't print anything different, and `--debug` prints too much stuff. I've attempted to search for strings that are not "summary: green" or "status: Success" with not matches.

Thanks,
Arun.
