[Solved] No access to the network : how to install a package offline ?

Hi,

On my laptop, something goes wrong : I suddently didn't get the network (neither wifi, neither eth0).
On console, if I try to launch NetworkManager, I have this answer :

NetworkManager: error while loading shared libraries: libgudev-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

And without network, the case become a nice peace of cake !

My tools to solve the problem :
- a valid computer with internet
- a usb key

But I don't know how to install manually libgudev from AUR on the laptop, from usb key (to try if it can solve the roblem)

Any help is welcome !

to manually install a package

sudo pacman -U /root/Download/packagename.tar.gz

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Of … f_packages

also check the list of dependencies required by the package and have them handy if needed but they are probably there already

libsystemd
gobject-introspection
gtk-doc
systemd

And why from AUR it is available in the Extras repo ?

click the Download from mirrors link to the far right of the page

What's the output of

uname -a
pacman -Q libgudev
file /usr/lib/libgudev-1.0.so.0

@Malkymder : I tried, but I have this error at this step "pacman -Sp --noconfirm libgudev > pkglist" :

Error : can't find the target : libgudev

@karol : uname -a give :

Linux berbelu 4.0.5-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT...

pacman -Q libgudev give :

Error : the package "libgudev" was not found

and file /usr/lib/libgudev-1.0.so.0 return :

/usr/lib/libgudev-1.0.so.0 cannot open "/usr/lib/libgudev-1.0.so.0" no such file or directory
