gcc-ada package in testing is a corrupted archive.  When trying to do a system update "pacman -Syu" the following error ensues:

(1/1) checking package integrity                   [###################] 100%
(1/1) loading package files                        [###################] 100%
error: error while reading package /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gcc-ada-4.6.2-3-ppc.pkg.tar.xz: Damaged tar archive
error: failed to commit transaction (libarchive error)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.


Thanks,

Fred

Hi Fred, you can remove gcc-ada unless you need it for building
anything, so you can continue with the upgrade in the meantime. We are
working on a lot of packages now.
Cheers,
Enric

We need to recompile it before moving gcc from testing to extra..
don't know why it is damaged.
