libperl.so not found

Hello,

updated my arch and since then urxvt doesn't start anymore.

~  urxvt
urxvt: error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

ldd /usr/bin/urxvt | grep perl
libperl.so => not found

How can I fix that?
Thx for help.

I gather you are not using the rxvt-unicode package from [community]. If you build your own urxvt, you need to rebuild it.

Thx very much. That was it. Works now again.

This post is for reference:

If you are like me, and have updated your whole system and your urxvt still doesnt work AND you forgot that you have actually replaced the "default" urxvt installation by the patched one form the AUR: rxvt-unicode-patched. Then you probably also forgot to upgrade aur packages... my problem was solved by upgrading rxvt-unicode-patched.
