Hi There,
I just installed pacman-3.0 and when I try pacman -Syu, i got this error:
error: failed to parse config (syntax error in config file)
Here is my pacman.conf file:

I found out that commenting out LogFile line, solves the problem and pacman works after commenting out that line.. But it's weird because I talked to people who has that option in their pacman.conf..
Any thoughts on this ?

Just found out that this a bug because of the Turkish locale... I'm now going to file this as a bug report.. Thanks to the people in #archlinux in irc.freenode.net !!

Now i've upgraded the system and i've set Turkish local too..
System is up-to-date, i can "pacman -Syu" but i can't "pacman -S vlc".. How can i fix this bug?
Edit: now i've tried the logfile method..
ignored the logfile line and fixed.. weird bug..
