[Archlabs] "Invalid or corrupted package" preventing me from updating my packages.

solved!

I recently installed Archlabs (Arch with a Bunsenlabs like configeration) and wanted to update my system. It appears that the file playerctl-0.6.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted. I have been given a prompt to delete it, but when attempting to do so the whole update fails. How do I get around this and properly update my system?
