[SOLVED]Pacman doesn't update

Question

Hi.
I'm having a problem with Pacman. It seems like it doesn't update the database. A few days ago I updated my system with a "pacman -Syu", and (I don't know when exactly) It just stopped.
Trying a "pacman -Syu":
sudo pacman -Syu

core está actualizado

Trying a "pacman -Syy":
sudo pacman -Syy
