I've tried various mirrors, but each time i get the following from pacman:

checking package integrity...
:: File docky-2.0.7-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted. Do you want to delete it? [Y/n]

I believe the packager (Jan Steffens) may have made an accidental error in the package (i saw this happen before in the forums with other packages).
This task depends upon

It also causes a hang-up with pacman. After selcting either [y]es or [n]o, it just crashes indefinitely with 50% CPU usage so i have to ctrl+c out of it.

I tried 3 different mirrors all with the same result (can't check right now, not at home).

After doing this though, i completely crashed my system when the root partition ran out of space. I'm stuck in a hole now trying to figure out how to restore everything. Maybe that was the problem (no space) ?
