audiofile libxvmc libxdamage sysfsutils exists in filesystem [Solved]

I've done a pacman -Syu tonight, and I cannot get the above packages to update, getting lots of "exists in filesystem" errors.  I'm not finding any info on these. 

I had trouble with klibc but ultimately got it to update by updating all klibc* packages together, as someone suggested.

Can you post exact error message?

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

I ran through a pacman -Qo on all the files listed as errors under audiofile, all show that no package owns them.

I will proceed to rename the files carrying the error and rerun pacman for the packages, see if everything is ok.  If no further errors, will delete the packages.  (Dug deeper into the forums to find this method...)
