After pacman -Syu, nothing works !

Hello !

I am very dispointed !
I have upgrade my system, with pacman -Syu (since testing has been moved in current).

And, now, apache and samba doesn't want to start !

[root@Antec nicolas]# /etc/rc.d/samba start
:: Starting Samba Server                                                 [BUSY]
/usr/sbin/smbd: error while loading shared libraries: libdb-4.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/usr/sbin/nmbd: error while loading shared libraries: libdb-4.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
                                                                         [FAIL]

[root@Antec nicolas]# /usr/sbin/apachectl start
/usr/sbin/httpd: error while loading shared libraries: libdb-4.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

But DB has been upgraded ! I stopped my pacman -Syu, and i don't want to upgrade anymore : too many damage, I think !!

It stays this package to upgrade :

Total Package Size:   75.1 MB

I have done again a pacman -S db, but it's the same result !

What's the problem ??
Where is the Arch Stability ??
This machine is a file server on ArchLinux...

Thanks for your help !

Re: After pacman -Syu, nothing works !

u can usually safely link to the other the lib ... that *.4 is usually a symlink for libs ...
db is at *.5 when those apps are looking for  *.4

cp /usr/lib/libdb-4.5.so /usr/lib/libdb-4.4.so

should fix this;

Re: After pacman -Syu, nothing works !

Have you recently updated your mirror list?  I did and I had half pkgs from before the big move and half from after and there were depends issues.  Solution is to ensure that same mirror is top of all the mirror list

Yes, but it's not 'clean'... It's not normal that I must do this in a current system...

Yes, it is updated :-/ I don't undestand.

Re: After pacman -Syu, nothing works !

I had the same problem after I upgraded only Berkley DB package. I took following action to solve the problem:

pacman -Sy
pacman -Su

I know you did exactly the same thing, and the problem occurred after. But I guess the people who maintain archlinux repository did necessary rebuilds of certain packages which depend on Berkley DB. Just give it a try again.

Cheers!

Re: After pacman -Syu, nothing works !

So, we must wait that apache and samba package are rebuilded ?

I told you I solved the problem by doing system upgrade. What are the versions of apache and samba packages you have installed on your box? Mine are apache 2.2.4-2 and samba 3.0.24-4 . Everything works fine.

Re: After pacman -Syu, nothing works !

I read it.
It's works fine, but I don't understand... why i must do a pacman -S && pacman -Sy ?
The packages that i have not upgraded have no link with apache and samba.
