All, Devs,

From earlier discussions, I thought the empty stray directory problem in /var/cache/pacman/pkg had been identified and solved. But I was hit again today with directories created this year, e.g. sudo pacman -Sc

error: could not open file /var/cache/pacman/pkg/download-peUZUV: Error reading fd 7 error: could not open file /var/cache/pacman/pkg/download-uq8lgk: Error reading fd 7

  Where, e.g.:

$ sudo ls -al /var/cache/pacman/pkg/download-peUZUV
total 352
drwx------ 2 alpm alpm   4096 Jan  1 03:42 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 352256 Jan  8 21:56 ..

I went ahead and just removed both directories. If there are any logs you are interested in, let me know, but I know the commit that led to this has already been identified. I'm just not sure of the fix.
