Description:

Sometimes due to network connection or other issues, the mirror database and its signatures may get corrupted.

It would be nice for `pacman` to automatically remove corrupted database and signatures and download new, when user input `pacman -Syu`.

Otherwise, user have to manually type `rm -R /var/lib/pacman/sync`.

It is a lot inconvenient for user.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any

Steps to reproduce:
