error: Unrecognized archive format; Manjaro Linux

Un error que podemos encontrar, cuando recien instalamos Manjaro Linux, e intentamos ahora actualizar nuestros paquetes con

# pacman -Syu

Nos encontramos con algo como,

error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/core.db: Unrecognized archive format
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/extra.db: Unrecognized archive format
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/community.db: Unrecognized archive format
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/multilib.db: Unrecognized archive format

Se resovio, eliminando estos 4 archivos de:

/var/lib/pacman/sync/
# rm *.db

Despues volvemos a intentar, aunque primero nos actualiza archivos del Sistema,

# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core        ... #############] 100%
 extra       ... #############] 100%
 community   ... #############] 100%
 multilib    ... #############] 100%
:: The following packages should be upgraded first :
    manjaro-system  pacman
:: Do you want to cancel the current operation
:: and upgrade these packages now? [Y/n]

Posteriormente solicitar la actualizacion de los paquetes de Manjaro,

# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...

Y Listo, Manjaro se anda bien...
