This is more than a package issues, it must be some pacman issue. I just 
rsynced box1 -> box2 where pyqt installed fine after the second download, and 
I still get:

checking package integrity...
:: File pyqt-4.8.2-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted. Do you want to delete it? 
[Y/n]
error: failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package)
pyqt-4.8.2-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is invalid or corrupted
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

This was with the rsync of a good pyqt. Is there a md5sum out of whack somewhere?
