[SOLVED] File exists in system (kdegames-bovo)

I followed the sticky info and did a pacman -Qo on the files existing

pacman -Qo /usr/bin/bovo 
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/local/kdegames-bovo-4.6.3-2/files: No such file or directory
error: No package owns /usr/bin/bovo

Do I have to manually mv or rm each file individually to repair this issue?

Re: [SOLVED] File exists in system (kdegames-bovo)

/usr/bin/bovo is owned by kdegames-bovo.
Let's hope that correcting

error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/local/kdegames-bovo-4.6.3-2/files: No such file or directory

by copying the correct file to /var/lib/pacman/local/kdegames-bovo-4.6.3-2/files will help.

I'm sorry, but I do not follow.  I see the list of files and directories that you've posted, however I still don't know which file to copy.

Copy the list I posted to a file named /var/lib/pacman/local/kdegames-bovo-4.6.3-2/files and cross your fingers.
