Hi,

Why pacman think that file is corrupted when I do -Syu and does not think so when I do -U ... ?

because the checksum is stored in the Sync database, which -U has no knowledge of. -U only knows the package file you give it.

That means that the package does not match the md5sum provided in the sync database. pacman -U does not know that a package comes from a repo and so can not check the md5sums. However, the fact that the package installed with pacman -U tells me it is not "too" corrupt... That makes me suspicious that someone uploaded a package with the same pkgver-pkgrel resulting in an inconsistent pacman database. Allan
