Details

I'm synced with the current repo, but not with testing.

I explicitly said, pacman -S gnome-panel.

Now I have gnome-panel 2.14.2-1, which depends on
evolution-data-server>=1.6.2

I have evolution-data-server 1.6.2-2, which depends on libsoup>=2.2.93

I have libsoup 2.2.93-1, which depends on gnutls>=1.4.0

I have gnutls 1.4.0-1, which owns /usr/lib/libgnutls.so.13
but owns no file ending in .12

_But_ when I try to execute /opt/gnome/bin/gnome-panel,

gnome-panel: error while loading shared libraries:
libgnutls.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory

(Other packages, like gnome-terminal, are affected the same way.)

I seem to recall I can fix the problem by pacman -R of gnome-panel,
then of evolution-data-server, then of libsoup, then of gnutls,
then pacman -A of older versions of these packages from my
/var/cache/pacman.
This task depends upon

When I submitted this bug report, some packages had yet to sync with current,
but I knew that gnome-panel, gnutls and the other packages I mentioned
_had_. Now that all the packages on my system have synced with current,
the buggy behavior that I described has gone away.

So, I'm retracting or closing this bug report.

(You can see how a reasonable person might have jumped to the conclusion
that syncing other packages would not fix anything. Can't you?)

Sorry for the false alarm! I'll be more careful in the future.
