Use the Arch install medium and its working pacman and set the install
dir to your system. Assume your pacman database is corrupt as well so
discard it. Reinstall at least base and base-devel into your mounted
system from the live medium and copy the resulting db. This will only
make pacman recognize packages contained in base and base-devel when
you're booting back into your system but at least pacman will be working
again.
