Evidently kde4 saw and conflict with the kde3 packages and didn't install anything. The last line of the output was:

Talk about a bummer.... What does the brain-trust suggest?
Make sure you don't have any third packages related to KDE installed (aka kdemod). If you don't have KDE installed from extra before there will be a problem with installing kde the first time from kde-unstable. If you install by group (pacman -S kde) pacman tries to install the kde group it finds in extra and the on in kde-unstable. And then you'll get a file conflict of course. Three options: * just install kdebase-workspace and everything else you need by hand * run pacman -S kde and make sure to answer "no" to all packages you will be asked for the second time (the first ones will be from kde-unstable and the other ones from extra) * Use the kde-meta group or kde-meta-* packages to install Note that this is just pacman's limitation and you are only affected when using testing/kde-unstable and don't just update but make a new install of KDE.
