cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hi, I faced a problem and tried hard to solve this on my own for few days, but my effort wasn't enough.

One day, I found 'lxmusic' doesn't work and console show me this.

xmms2-launcher: startup of xmms2d failed!
Connection failed: xmms2d is not running.

So, I thought xmms-launcher -v will help me. And log output saved at /home/ghson2017/.cache/xmms2/xmms2d.log. This is result

--- Starting new xmms2d ---

And I tryied another command like 'grive' and the result was...

grive: error while loading shared libraries: libjson-c.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Also 'gimp'...

/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/file-pdf-load: error while loading shared libraries: libpoppler-glib.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I'm not sure but error message 'cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory' was common.

I googled and found 'sudo /sbin/ldconfig -v' will work but in my case doesn't work.

Can you guys give some advice for newbie?

Re: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Most of the "No such file or directory" errors you're seeing is because of optional deps for plugins. If you want those plugins, you have to install the optional deps that pacman told you about when you installed the software.

"grive" is not in the repos. I'm going to assume you built it from the AUR or elsewhere, so it's your responsibility to rebuild it when necessary.

Re: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

And from your other thread it seems that you might be running partial updates here and there, don't do that: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … nsupported
