Yes that happened to me too. Possible workaround is instaling only the BASE category and the rest later on from the cd

Yes this is a really annoying bug.
A full install is impossible.

Lot of people reported this: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=17754

Although people complained in the forum link (above) that a full install is impossible because of this bug, everything on the 0.7.1 full iso can be installed, except for the X11-libs group packages.

Its annoying though, particularly if you don't have easy net access to upgrade the relevant packages online.
