[Solved] KDE broken after last update (KWin keeps crashing)

Today I've -Syu`ed, and while pacman did his work, I kept reading in okular, and nothing seems to be bad.
Suddenly kwin crushed and made other applications to crash (plasma-desktop, krunner, etc.).
I believe, on the moment of crash, packages still hasn't been upgraded, just downloaded, maybe, but I'm not sure about this.

Then I waited till pacman stops any io, killed it, removed db.lck file, and runned pacman again. This time it returns me a bunch of errors, saying, that there are some files already in my system. Running pacman again but with -f now, said me, that there is nothing to do on my system.

After reboot I've got this

Updated packages: KDE stuff, nvidia drivers, some others, which I don't remember.

I need your help in resurrecting my desktop.
What logs and info should I provide?

TNX in advance.

I've been out of free space on my /var partition. That caused the problem.
