Re: expat 2.0

Works fine here, be sure to have everything updated, not just expat itself.

Re: expat 2.0

there's no updates for them listed? i'm getting all kinds of errors running pacman -Syu that wanted to update gtk, /usr/bin/gtk-query-immodules-2.0: error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0  etc.

Re: expat 2.0

Hmm, guess fontconfig didn't get updated before gtk2 on your system then, which causes the gtk-immodules update thingy to generate empty files.

Reinstall gtk2 and it should regenerate the file correctly. If the problems keep happening, make sure you're having fontconfig from testing, could be that you're running a 2.3.9x version, in that case pacman doesn't update it and programs fail to start.

Re: expat 2.0

xf86-video-* has been updated to match the new expat version, so there's no need to recompile that. Also, libdrm doesn't even link to it, so there's no point in recompiling that.
