Done thins. And also run `pacman -Sc` (clean cache) for good measure, but I got this:

Goes on, but errors regarding haskell packages are that it could not open file. maybe something else had gone wrong.. Still researching.
My spontaneous reaction is that it looks filesystem related. I'd personally start with running `fsck` on the file system to see if that clears up the issues you see above. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus
