Its a little long, so I've pastebin'd it.
So, I understand stuff gets corrupted while downloading. That's why one always checks the [md5,sha1,sha256]sum of what you are downloading. But tell me. Did I hit the interrupt in the wrong place? I realized this -Syu wasn't going to go well, so I ^C'd out of it. Did I hose my local database? How do I get myself out of this one gracefully?
I also thought it strange that it didn't show the progress bar for the extra.db, and also for the latter half of the packages it was downloading. But according to conky, I was still moving data (albeit, I don't know where from or to.)

What happens if you run "sudo pacman -Syyu"?

Earlier, I had tried that (after I made the pastebin) , and it did the downloading core.db.tar.gz.. without the progress bar, just like -Syu, and also said the local database was up to date.
But I tried it now (about 3 hours since I last tried) And it seemed to properly download the [$repo].db.tar.gz files. Its offering again to replace klibc, I'll give it a try again.
Is this just some random weirdness while the mirror was syncing?
[edit]
Oh yeah, check line 90 on the pastebin. I did include an -Syyu.

Bad mirror, bad!
after -Syyu, it came back with this:
Its a shame really. schlunix.org has been my favorite mirror for the last year, always fast and up to date.
I'll try with another mirror.
