Hello, during todays update (after 46 days) I got this error during pacman post-transaction hooks.

How to fix it ?

I think that I fixed it in gremlins/openrc. Bug report is filed, and PR pending if upstream agrees.

Please update openrc and reinstall wine & mono again to confirm.
binfmt_misc should get properly unregistered now and registered again.
