Um what? You're going to need to be a little more specific. --Kaiting.
This is still very broad and not very specific. You updated to a lot of
packages from testing and unstable repositories. Since you updated so
many, it is difficult to track down which package caused this problem.
It would be good if you could say specifically what package you updated
to caused this problem.
Unless this is scratch system you are going to blow away, my advice is
that you boot with some other medium, mount this install, and use pacman
from the other medium to downgrade the install (after you have fixed
/etc/pacman.conf on the broken system).
If you want to continue down this path, once you are back to a normal
system, one at a time you could make these repositories higher priority,
update and reboot until it breaks, then fix again, then you'd have a
better idea what package it was that caused this problem.
