[SOLVED] OpenConnect missing libtss2-esys.so.0

SOLUTION

While writing this forum post, I decided to try updating all packages and the database and reinstalling OpenConnect. I'm not sure of the specifics of why, but it got rid of the error.

pacman -R openconnect # uninstall OpenConnect
pacman -Syu # update all packages
pacman -S openconnect # install OpenConnect

Still posting for the sake of documentation and possibly helping others.

Original Issue Description

I installed OpenConnect using pacman. When I run openconnect in terminal, I get the following output:

openconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libtss2-esys.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Googling this error only brings up a few esoteric forum posts about the missing library mostly in the context of other software that I'm not familiar with like tpm2-tools, with little explanation for me to work with given my current level of linux knowledge.

If anyone could explain what this library is, why it's missing, how to install it, I'd appreciate it.
