Hi, Guus.

I've just run the memtest from archiso. Just passed, no error reported. So I'm 
afraid it has to be an fs bug or other hardware error... I'm looking forward to 
running a SMART test later. But the current Arch installation is on a Kingstom 
USB drive, is that okay with the SMART test?

In fact, what confused me most now is why both pacman and fsck reported 
segmentation fault... It can't just be a coincidence, right?

Oh, remembered one more thing. I tried to remove the gnome-extra group again 
this afternoon. The same error, the same output. More specifically, even 
exactly the same time the error happened (when attemptting to remove package 
telepathy-idle). Funny enough, Uhm? ;)

Thx a lot!
