Details

I configured a mirror, but made it resolve to localhost, so that all connections refuse.
Pacman clearly shows the relevant errors, but still says "Package Installation Complete." at the end, end exits (1).

Below the output of:
pacman --root /mnt --config /tmp/pacman.conf --noconfirm -S "attr" "bash" "binutils" "bzip2" "coreutils" "cryptsetup" "dash" "dcron" "device-mapper" "dhcpcd" "diffutils" "e2fsprogs" "file" "filesystem" "findutils" "gawk" "gcc-libs" "gen-init-cpio" "gettext" "glibc" "grep" "grub" "gzip" "initscripts" "iputils" "jfsutils" "kernel26" "less" "licenses" "logrotate" "lvm2" "mailx" "man-db" "man-pages" "mdadm" "nano" "net-tools" "pacman" "pciutils" "pcmciautils" "perl" "ppp" "procps" "psmisc" "reiserfsprogs" "rp-pppoe" "sed" "shadow" "sysfsutils" "syslog-ng" "sysvinit" "tar" "tcp_wrappers" "texinfo" "udev" "usbutils" "util-linux-ng" "vi" "wget" "which" "wpa_supplicant" "xfsprogs"

Fail. Not sure why we eat the error code somewhere along the way.

Interestingly enough, I'm seeing this exact behavior with both pacman master and maint branches, so I'm going to toss this back to you Dieter to see why it isn't working for you. I've attached my minimal pacman.conf for testing, run with the above command after doing `mkdir /tmp/mnt` and `mkdir -p /tmp/pacman/sync`.

note that the OP was not about exit code ( that was already good: 1), but rather the "package installation complete" message.
I've tried to reproduce it on my own pc with your commands, which gives me a similar output as yours.
On my current archiso testbuilds it also behaves similarly. I believe doing the exact same thing on the 2010.05 images (which also ship pacman 3.4.1) showed me the mentioned bogus string.

But since it works fine on my current archiso testbuilds I suggest we close the ticket. Maybe this got fixed with a minor patch in the 3.4.1 series.

Oh, it was? Well in that case, it is obvious- that message is in your code, not ours. :)
