[coirius@atom ~]$ sudo pacman -S hwinfo
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/community.db: (Empty
error message)
error: target not found: hwinfo

This is much more of a question for arch-general or the forums then
here on the development list, but you should probably try `pacman -Sy`
first. If that doesn't produce any output saying it is updating
community, then something else is wrong.
