This time, without any timeouts and it still failed the upgrade with same error for the same package. So I uninstalled ati-dri and xf86-video-ati. I have intel card and got all those extra drivers because I installed the whole group for simplicity. Try again and this time it failed for gcc-libs. Delete, redownload and the error still persists. and I don't think uninstalling gcc-libs is an option. I also found https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28014 but I don't think that can solely fix the issue. --debug is printing enough information or so I would like to think. Pl. Help. -- Regards Shridhar
