[SOLVED] broken man. error: libgdbm.so.4 not found

whenever i use man smth i get:

man: error while loading shared libraries: libgdbm.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

as i see with "ldd /usr/bin/man" command:

linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffefdfba000)
    libmandb-2.7.6.1.so => /usr/lib/man-db/libmandb-2.7.6.1.so (0x00007f7d497c8000)
    libman-2.7.6.1.so => /usr/lib/man-db/libman-2.7.6.1.so (0x00007f7d495a5000)
    libpipeline.so.1 => /usr/lib/libpipeline.so.1 (0x00007f7d49353000)
    libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f7d4918f000)
    libgdbm.so.4 => not found
    libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x00007f7d48f78000)
    /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f7d499d0000)

man wants to use libgdbm.so.4 which i only have libgdbm.so.6. I have this problem with other gdbm sub dependecies too.
have tried pacman -Syyu, recompiling, rebooting. havent tried linking libgdm.so.4 to libgdbm.so.6 (got scared smth would brake) none worked out
i just know its all because of damn yaourt

thanks for help

Re: [SOLVED] broken man. error: libgdbm.so.4 not found

libmandb-2.7.6.1.so

This version of man is from February. Are you doing partial updates? Please post the full output from

pacman -Syu

EDIT:

and the output from

pacman -Qi man-db
