Base-Devel is fully installed, this is a fresh install, based off of 2008.02 dvd iso. Clyde works fine, and I even tried to reinstall yaourt with it but still the same error. Package-query is installed.

Get the package-query PKGBUILD from AUR, build package (makepkg) and install (pacman -U package-query-bla-bla.tar.gz)
EDIT:
First of all you must install yajl - it's a package-query dependency.

Well, if you didn't break it, someone else must have.

The day Microsoft makes a product that doesn't suck, is the day they make a vacuum cleaner.

But if they tell you that I've lost my mind, maybe it's not gone just a little hard to find...

maybe you shouldn't run yaourt as root too, downloading package and building them is wrong!

How did you update yaourt? It should have pulled in package-query as a dependency.

I think this is solved now with the PKGBUILD for package-query. I pulled yaourt in with pacman after adding the archlinux.fr repos. Nothing out of the ordinary for good measure though I reinstalled the yajl package.
LOL.. Jelly.. ya I know I'm bad on that but I'm so used to running root on installing/building packages. I figure if Arch is gonna screw me over it's gonna happen anyway, and the same thing about SourceForge. I take them as trusted repos with proper md5 keys and such. Maybe that is niave and bad practice for the newbies. If a package is built its still going to have whatever mischevious "code" is in it during the install which uses root. If I was running 911 or a brain surgery unit maybe I'd be a little more concerned. If it breaks then to me thats the whole fun of it all I get to learn how to fix it. Alert someone of a serious issue so others don't have to go through it.

That's strange, the PKGBUILD for yaourt on AUR has package-query as a dependency, I would think the one in the archlinux.fr repo should have as well.
