[SOLVED] Lib file version conflict: libstdc++.so.6 cannot be found

Alright, so I made a terrible mistake and now I'm in a bind. I attempted to commit a "pacman -Syu" on an old-ish 2007.08 system, and when it asked me to updated pacman, I said okay, and then it told me there were file conflicts with library files. I remember that some version of libstdc++ was in the list.

However, I was fed up, and tired, so I forced the changes with the -f flag. Now I am trying to set up a GUI on this machine, but when I go to run simple programs (that I have installed with pacman) like firefox, I get

/usr/bin/gtbl: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I noticed that I do have .so.5.0.7 and a symlink to it, .so.5. Does anyone know how to fix this type of library file version conflict? I tried reinstalling gcc (from cache), and firefox (from cache), but no luck.

That file is in  gcc-libs package. Try reinstalling  gcc-libs.

Did you try updating libstdc++5 3.3.6-2. or glibc 2.7-7. If things are really screwed up, maybe you could try updating base. pacman -Sy base


-- archlinux 是一个极好的 linux
