Pacman issues [SOLVED]

devadittya · 2012-01-20 13:32:19

So, I ran into issues with Pacman 4, and key-testing. I decided to go down to pacman 3.6.
Now I have a new issue. While running any pacman command I get this:

pacman: error while loading shared libraries: libarchive.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Help please

If you downgraded only pacman package, that's what happens.
See the last tip in the faq: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … tall_it.3F

Thanks. That helped

I did that. Changed SigLevel to Never, ran pacman-key init again.

I get this now:

[root@arch_devb devadittya]# pacman -Sf openssl libarchive libfetch pacman || exit 1
warning: config file /etc/pacman.conf, line 35: directive 'ShowSize' in section 'options' not recognized.

Okay, I figured that I have to delete these files.
Sorry. I don't think I delete these files. When I delete these, pacman stops working. Damn!
EDIT: Fixed. I had to disable syncfirst for pacman. I re-enabled it later. phew Now, I need to disable stupid package signing.
