bash command doesn't work after update

ranjiao · 2009-11-12 13:22:59

I just ran pacman -Syu as normal, but some got many errors like below:
( 3/11) upgrading binutils

error: command failed to execute correctly

and every package except kernel-headers got a error message like that. and then i found most of my bash command doesn't work any more, just like ls and vim. However, some others like pwd and cd still work correctly.

Any one any ideal?

Did you change anything in the directory default arch structure?

I removed /lib64 and make a soft link from /lib64 to /lib, as Matlab09 requires a /lib64 containing crt libs.
is this the cause?

Yes.

I've done that before and got into the same problem when updating glibc, the lesson here, don't mess with the default directory structure.
