Hi to everyone! I would like, again, ask for your help. I updated my Arch linux, and now after update, when i want to launch mpd there is an error:

error while loading shared libraries: libxavs2.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

and mpd wont staty.

/usr/bin/mpd: error while loading shared libraries: libxavs2.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Could somebody help? There is something with libxavs2.so.12 but i don't know what to do more to correct it. Yearlier was the same problem, but few days past it, when i did an upgrade, mpd was fixed. No the error is present again and i cant launch it. Is there something that i could do to fix it?

Paste your full pacman log.

No, better, paste the full output of `pacman -Syu --debug`.

Cant paste it, it is too large to copy. Don't know how to "catch" output of running pacman into a file to paste it. Sorry for being a noob

I disabled mpd as a user via

systemctl --user disable mpd.service

and enabled as a service

systemctl enable mpd.service

now i see that MPD is correctly started but i have an error regarding database

 error 50 no database

while in fact, i have correctly placed it in ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf

And `pacman -Qi mpd`?

I solved it. I found on internet that libxavs2.so.12 is a part of ffmpeg package. I deleted ffmpeg-full, installed ffmpeg. After it i had problem with running it as a user becuse (don't know how) i had enabled it for root and for user accout. On root account there was no database, database error so i disabled root user, reenabled user account and typed correctly password for user account privacy mpd settings.

Thank you for helping me.

I would ask for one thing regarding libxavs2.so.12. Could you also tell me how to check in this case scenario how to check what file is from what package? I put libxavs2.so.12 into www and while searching i found that maybe it is a part of ffmpeg - it was, thats why mpd now works. How to check when i would have similar problem with shared object which shared object is from what package?

If you install random shit from AUR, it is your job to update it, not pacman's.

pacman -Fo $file

Thank you very much!

BTW - that "shit", just like you wrote, was ffmpeg that should give more options, but i see that it just got something worse.
