Karol,

  I checked www.archlinux.com and I checked packages. Usually it is just a
timing issue when these things pop up - thus my question "is it just a timing
issue?" There are times when any user can miss something in a bug report, etc..
Please don't take that as an open invitation to berate them openly. That is a
large part of the reason the Arch list has a negative reputation for being open
to users asking for help.

  There is a fine line between being helpful and being sarcastic. A simple see:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28938 would have sufficed.

  I appreciate your help, but I won't, nor should anyone else, tolerate abusive
behavior on this list.
