libattr.so.1 cannot open shared object file [solved]

Updating my system and was getting lots of file conflicts; I believe I deleted something during that process that gives me this error.  System will not list any files, and pacman seems nonfunctional.

What, if anything, can I do to restore what I messed up?

Re: libattr.so.1 cannot open shared object file [solved]

I think I figured it out.  I appear to have deleted libattr.so.1 and libattr.so.1.1.0

I went onto my other server and used scp to copy those files to the server with the problem.  It now seems to be working.  I am still getting an error that /lib/libattr.so.1 is not a symbolic link, and will look to see how it is set up on the working server to fix it.

libattr.so.1 should be a symlink to libattr.so.1.1.0

cd /lib
rm libattr.so.1
ln -s libattr.so.1.1.0 libattr.so.1
