pulseaudio broken after today's updates (libcap problem)

mateusz@saturn:~$ pulseaudio
pulseaudio: error while loading shared libraries: libcap.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
mateusz@saturn:~$ pacman -Q libcap
libcap 2.16-3
mateusz@saturn:~$

from pacman.log:

[2009-04-12 10:46] upgraded libcap (1.10-2 -> 2.16-3)

what should I do?

Edit:
Besides downgrading libcap and ignoring libcap2.

Edit2:
Seems pulseaudio package just needs a rebuild. Semi-solved I guess.

I prefer pulseaudio-git from AUR myself, seems to work better (no numbers to support this though). All I had to do was re-run makepkg on the cached copy in /var/abs/local/yaourtbuild.

Pulseaudio had to be built again against the new libcap.
