[alex@alex-laptop ~]$ sudo pacman -S unrar Password: resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... Targets (1): unrar-4.2.1-1 Total Installed Size: 0.20 MiB Proceed with installation? [Y/n] (1/1) checking package integrity [############################################################] 100% (1/1) loading package files [############################################################] 100% (1/1) checking for file conflicts [############################################################] 100% error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) unrar: /usr/bin/unrar exists in filesystem unrar: /usr/share/licenses/unrar/LICENSE exists in filesystem Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded. It seems that both filesystem and unrar has /usr/bin/unrar file Additional info: * package version(s) unrar-4.2.1-1 filesystem 2012.2-5 (base) * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: With unrar installed, cannot pacman -S filesystem to get upgraded pacman -R unrar, then upgrade filesystem, then cannot pacman -S unrar |

An odd conclusion to draw without ever using 'pacman -Qo' to verify this. "filesystem" doesn't refer to the package called "filesystem" here. It refers to your actual root filesystem.
No, the simple explanation is that you installed unrar manually at some point.
