problems with psi and irssi.

I installed Arch few hours ago. I packmaned psi, but it can't fint such a lib:
[vrok@ankh vrok]$ psi
psi: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I've got XFree86 4.3, straight from 0.6 ISO. I hope it can be solved without upgrading to X.org (maybe later...).
btw. I also made Psi installation from source, but the same happens.

And, second thing. I've installed irssi, but it puts out nothing. I mean:
[vrok@ankh vrok]$ irssi
[vrok@ankh vrok]$

Ncurses is ok. So, any advices?

the psi error may be that it is compiled against xfree86 4.4. as for irrssi it appears to not be launching this again could be a result of you system not being up to date enough. have you pacman -Syu 'ed since installing? if not i suggest that then try those apps again

Yeah, I know these issues probably go with old dependencies, but now I've got no time to upgrade everything though I need to communicate with some fellows. ;/

You can try building the programs yourself with ABS or srcpac. Then they'll use the packages on your system and not try to use the new ones.

Argh, now I know why Psi from source also hasn't worked. Psi from ArchLinux places its executable in /usr/bin, and original Makefile does it in /usr/local/bin - a directory which is searched after the first one. I executed old Psi and thought its that new one. Oh, you foolish Vrok But thanks for suggestions.
And I think I'll bite into that ABS - I liked Gentoo and Portage in the past
