Pacman reinstals itself.

Hello, I recently updated pacman to version 7.0 and it constantly reinstall itself.
Code: [Select]
warning: pacman-7.0.0.r3.g7736133-1 is up to date -- reinstalling

Hi, is there anything special in your pacman.conf?

Any warnings when it reinstalls itself?

Try deleting /var/cache/pacman for a start.

There is no other warning. I deleted cache but it is still the same situation. I don't see anything special in my pacman.conf.

What is the exact command you use to update? Just "pacman -Syu", or is there possibly some faulty aliasing?

I'm asking because e.g. "pacman -Syu pacman" gives the output you're getting.

Ok, my bad... I used pacman -Syyu pacman and not pacman -Syyu.  :o  :D
