Description:

I'm unable to do a system upgrade in pacman. It seems I'm not the only one having the problem:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1043160

I am using pacman 4.0.1 and here are the errors I'm getting:

$ sudo pacman -Syu

Workaround: I was able to upgrade by running:

pacman -Rdd gcc-multilib gcc-libs-multilib
before pacman -Syu

I resolved this issue by installing gcc-multilib as suggested by hokasch here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1043413#p1043413

pacman -S gcc-multilib

should do it
