[(Un)solved] ldconfig on anything gives Bus error (core dumped)

I think I need to rebuild my /etc/ld.so.cache from scratch.
Can I do it with a blank /etc/ld.so.conf? Or should I use a minimal

# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/lib32

The output of any one line from

/etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf

into

 ldconfig -nNX 

produces the same error. There are no trailing blanks in any line.

Alternatively, I could reinstall ldconfig. How do I use pacman to find out what package holds it? (I need this method for later....) I expect it is in the base group???

Or just `pacman -Qo /bin/ldconfig` given that it's already installed.

Re: [(Un)solved] ldconfig on anything gives Bus error (core dumped)

Thank you, Trilby and Slithery. I found ldconfig was a member of the glibc package.
My next step was to reinstall glibc. It had these results:

(1/1) reinstalling glibc          
Generating locales...
  en_US.UTF-8... done
  en_US.ISO-8859-1... done
Generation complete.
/tmp/alpm_9Msspz/.INSTALL: line 1: 37367 Bus error               (core dumped) ldconfig -r .
error: command failed to execute correctly
error: command terminated by signal 7: Bus error
:: Running post-transaction hooks...
(1/7) Reloading system manager configuration...
(2/7) Creating temporary files...
error: command failed to execute correctly
(3/7) Arming ConditionNeedsUpdate...
...

The alpm error looks interesting, but it may be a side effect.

I have 2 e-cents. May I buy another clue?

error: command terminated by signal 7: Bus error

What is the output of dmesg after you reinstalled glibc?
Particularly relating to the storage device.

Is this the drive or the controller?

smartctl -a /dev/sdc

Smells like the drive, though.

Re: [(Un)solved] ldconfig on anything gives Bus error (core dumped)

The status matrix of "smartctl -a /dev/sdc" - it's gonna report several values reg. crc errors, reallocations, pending sectors…

I can no longer research this topic as I have had to rebuild the system twice since then. Thanks to all for help.
