Everything is broke! gstreamer, pidgin [SOLVED]

skwo · 2010-02-16 11:10:37

Whats going on with arch? its not a bleeding edge anymore, its "fix you system after each upgrade" :\

First I had a lot of errors from ldconfig that /usr/lib/libgstX is bad because ELF header does not contain a good magic number (something like this), the same goes for libfuse and libulockmgr. So i simply removed gstreamer and fuse (and half of gnome on the way) and ldconfig still said the same, so I deleted the libXX that ldconfig complained about. reinstaller fuse, gstreamer, gnome and they complained that "XX already exists in filesystem" so I did pacman -Sf on those packages. Now I cant start pidgin because:

pidgin
pidgin: error while loading shared libraries: libgstreamer-0.10.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

What the hell?! cant gstreamer create all files it needs?
Also gnome-mixer applet cannot be loaded.
No more gnome-cups-manager
Duplicate packages like polkit and policykit, shouldnt new package that replaces old one, remove the old one?

Sorry for being that annoying, just some time ago, arch was more usable, you simply update and continue using the system. Today you update, spent half day to fix the problem that update caused.
Any help?

These type of errors are relatively easy to root-cause and fix

$ locate libgstreamer-0.10.so.0
/usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0                
/usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.23.0           
$ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0
/usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0 is owned by gstreamer0.10 0.10.26-1
$ pacman -Ql gstreamer0.10 | grep /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0
gstreamer0.10 /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0                                    
gstreamer0.10 /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.23.0                               
$ ls -l /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Feb 12 20:10 /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0 -> libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.23.0
$ ldd /usr/bin/pidgin |grep libgstreamer-0.10.so.0
        libgstreamer-0.10.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0 (0x00007f07f7fbf000)

Obviously one of these fails on your system, telling your that it's either pidgin or gstreamer that is outdated. Then get the outdated package from an up-to-date mirror.

Thanks for reply!!

Here is the output:

I tried to use up-to-date mirror, didnt help.

-Edit-

locate libgstreamer
/usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.a
/usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so
/usr/lib/libgstreamer-0.10.so.0

ls -l /usr/lib/ | grep libgstreamer

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Feb 12 22:20 libgstreamer-0.10.so -> libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.23.0

-Edit 2-
Using another mirror solved the problem. Thanks!

My guess is that you don't have gstreamer installed:
$ pacman -Q gstreamer0.10
$ pacman -Ql gstreamer0.10

Or locate is using an outdated database. When is the last time you ran updatedb?

I did have gstreamer installed, but as understood it was a broken version.

I never run updatedb ^^
