[SOLVED] rtorrent probably needs an update ?

This happens when I try to  launch rtorrent :

$ rtorrent
rtorrent: error while loading shared libraries: libtorrent.so.19: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

on the file system there is

/usr/lib/libtorrent.so
/usr/lib/libtorrent.so.20
/usr/lib/libtorrent.so.20.0.0

but no libtorrent.so.19

So it looks like libtorrent got an update but not rtorrent.

I'm not sure how to proceed. Any suggestions ?

Re: [SOLVED] rtorrent probably needs an update ?

Both were updated on the same day, they should be properly linked. Whats your outputs for

pacman -Qs rtorrent
which rtorrent

and a pacman.log

Re: [SOLVED] rtorrent probably needs an update ?

Normally you'd open a bug, but rtorrent-0.9.7-1 is built against libtorrent-0.13.7-1, which has /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.20. And I can't reproduce your issue:

$ ldd /bin/rtorrent |grep libtorrent
	libtorrent.so.20 => /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.20 (0x00007f811a064000)

Update your system with 'pacman -Syu' and post the output if the issue with rtorrent persists.

$ which rtorrent
/usr/local/bin/rtorrent

There it is. I totaly forgot I compiled rtorrent myself a long time ago ...
I just had to delete it and it works fine.

Thanks for the help!
