Description:
Trying to install pitivi but get the following error -

(1/1) checking package integrity [######################] 100%
(1/1) loading package files [######################] 100%
error: error while reading package /var/cache/pacman/pkg/pitivi-0.15.1-1-any.pkg.tar.xz: Linkname can't be converted from UTF-8 to current locale.
error: failed to commit transaction (libarchive error)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

I did have a previous version installed. I tried removing it to see if that was the issue. It wasn't.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
pitivi-0.15.1-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
pacman -S pitivi

You should fix your locale.

Yup, for some reason I thought that was aleady set, but making sure it was set to

LOCALE="en_GB.UTF-8"

sorted for me.

Thanks very much.
