[solved] Pacman won't remove kopete

Hi!
I have the strange problem that i can't get rid of kopete:

root /home/hauke #  pacman -R kdemod/kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete
Lade Paketdaten...
Fehler: 'kdemod/kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete': Konnte Paket nicht finden oder lesen
root /home/hauke #  pacman -S kdemod/kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete
Warnung: kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete-3.5.9-5 ist aktuell -- Überspringe

Pakete: kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete-3.5.9-5

Gesamtgröße der heruntergeladenen Pakete: 0,00 MB
Gesamtgröße der installierten Pakete: 18,97 MB

 > ATTENTION kopete:

   The Kopete-Reloading-Kit and the Emoticon-Manager are included
   within this release. You can activate and configure them in the
   prefs. Themes for the Reloading Kit are installed in:
   /opt/kde/share/apps/kopete/images/

   If you want encryption in Kopete, just install the kopete otr plugin:
   pacman -S kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete-otr

root /home/hauke #  pacman -R kdemod/kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete
Lade Paketdaten...
Fehler: 'kdemod/kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete': Konnte Paket nicht finden oder lesen
root /home/hauke #

The error is "couldn  find package "kdemod/kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete" - which was installed with pacman -S just seconds ago
And when i install the package i get the warning

Warnung: kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete-3.5.9-5 ist aktuell -- Überspringe

Which is in english: Warning - kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete-3.5.9-5 is the current version - skipping

Where can be the problem? This package is both installed and not installed...

Use LC_ALL=C in front of any commands you want to display in english. This would avoid you all the translation.

Anyway, just do pacman -R kdemod-kdenetwork-kopete
You can't specify the repo with kdemod/, it does not make any sense. Once you install a package, it goes in your local repository, so there is just one single repo of installed packages. You can't specify a repo when removing.
