Albert,

  The PKGBUILD for a few of the x86_64 packages need to be updated somehow to
include replaces() to avoid a few conflicts with existing kdemod3 files:

checking package integrity...
(152/152) checking for file conflicts
          [####################################################] 100%
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)

So far it looks like kdemod3-kdepim-base is the only one. Installing with:

pacman -Sf kdemod3-complete

works fine.
