can't install some packages

I was trying to install xchat with pacman --noconfirm -S xchat, and I got this error:

errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

The same thing happened when trying to install gnome and a few other programs. What's happening here, and how do I fix it?

Re: can't install some packages

Have you done a system update lately (pacman -Syu). If so it looks like the mirror you are using is out of date.  What version of gcc do you have? 

The gcc package split into gcc-libs and gcc.  You are only getting the update of gcc-libs and thus the resulting file conflicts with the old gcc package.
