Cannot install nvidia package

Hi, when I try to install the nvidia package from pacman, I get a segmentation fault, funny thing is, this doesn't happen with ANY other packages, only nvidia.

Here is the output from:
$pacman -S nvidia --debug

Please submit a full bug report with --debug if appropriate.

I have no idea why this is happening, I hope you guys can help me out.
