pacman malfunctioning?

I installed xmltv by adding the staging TUR to my pacman.conf, first I got was some broken pipe error. I could only install by forcing it with the -f and it worked fine. later I didn't like the program so I wanted to uninstall it with pacman -Rsn and nothing happened! I could remove it with -Rn but not with the -s option!

is this a bug? can I get rid of the other packages xmltv installed in any other way?

As far as I know, the -n option does not exist, and the -s option is only used for --sync (-S).
