Can you run with --debug and show us the output?
Aaron Griffin is trying to help me with my problem! I feel blessed :)
The output of --debug is quite long so I thought I'd better put it on pastebin. Here's the link :
Hmm, here is the relevant code from lib/libalpm/sync.c. You can see this error gets thrown if filename is null, which means alpm_pkg_get_filename() returned null on that particular package.
You can try running this command to see if any packages do not have a filename field: find /var/lib/pacman/sync -name desc -exec grep -L FILENAME {} \;
