[pacman-dev] Maybe a pacman bug?

Hi guys,

I'd like to report a strange behavior of pacman 3.0.4.
I have these settings in /etc/rc.conf:

LOCALE="en_US.utf8"
HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
TIMEZONE="Europe/Rome"
KEYMAP="it"
CONSOLEFONT=
CONSOLEMAP=
USECOLOR="yes"

For example, when I run:

# pacman -Sc
Do you want to remove old packages from cache? [Y/n]
Rimozione dei pacchetti vecchi dalla cache in corso... eseguito.

I got half of the messages in Italian and half in English.
I guess that this is a bug, because pacman has to check in LOCALE and
not in LOCALE and KEYMAP.
If I use the same LOCALE and KEYMAP (example: LOCALE="it_IT.utf8"
KEYMAP="it" or LOCALE="en_US.utf8 KEYMAP="us") pacman works fine and
shows me all the exact messages.
Any suggestions?
