archlinux:base r installation, files in filesystem missing

After installing the r package in the docker conatainer the folder

/usr/share/doc

doesnt exist.

Commands to reproduce:

Run Docker Container:

docker run -it archlinux:base

In Container:

pacman -Sy

pacman -S r

pacman -Ql r

lists for example

/usr/share/doc/R/html/up.jpg

But

/usr/share/

has no folder named doc.

Whats happening here?
Thanks in advance!

Check the pacman.conf on whether it has a NoExtract= directive.

Edit: It has: https://github.com/archlinux/archlinux- … tract.conf

Also don't run partial upgrades, it will break your system sooner or later.
