Thanks for your quick answer.

@cantabile, @Dave
Since I didn't upgraded core/filesystem package I have no issues with
makepkg and FF.

In fact I already installed Dropbox by downloading the PKGBUILD
and the rest of the files and running makepkg as usual and even up-
dated aur/calibre-bzr and bleachbit-svn with yaourt without problems.

The problem here is the core/filesystem package that somehow mess
my system rendering FF and makepkg unusable - either way makepkg is
invoked, via CLI or thru a pacman wrapper like yaourt).

Regarding the 'missing' package I was talking about core/filesystem.
When I said I didn't find the package in www.archlinux.org/packages
I was talking about core/filesystem which I tried to find with the
x86_64 filter - my bad, I apologize for that.
The package of course is located here:
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/any/filesystem/

My desire when mailing to the list was to know if anyone else were expe-
rimenting the same issue as I.
Just a crazy though: can this be a permissions issue?

What have me so lost is why I'm experimenting this because so far I never
had any problems in so much time updating the whole system everyday
or at least every other day. As a plus, despite a bunch of AUR packages
(yes, I know what that implies but I check everyone of them carefully
before install'em) I try to keep my system as much as standard and vanilla
as possible since I use my Arch for everyday job so please discard thinking
of any obscure changes I could have done.

Thanks again for your time =)
