libstd-975ad26df43f3092.so is not an ELF file -- what to do to fix?

empada · 2024-09-12 03:24:11

Hi all,

While trying to update using `yay`, I received the following message below:

ldconfig: /usr/lib/libstd-975ad26df43f3092.so is not an ELF file - it has the wrong magic bytes at the start.

I checked what this file could be and it redirects to

/usr/lib/rustlib/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/libstd-975ad26df43f3092.so

I have search for libstd-975ad26df43f3092.so without success.

It seems this error has been blocking other libraries to be updated as well...

Did anyone have the same problem in the past?

Thanks for your help!

Are you using the rust package? Because that is one that would own the symlink and actual file in question

If you're having the rust package installed, could you send the output of "pacman -Qkk rust"?

Hey,

Thanks for your response. That's part of the problem.

This is what I get from `pacman -Qkk rust`
error: package 'rust' was not found

But if I run `pacman -S rust`, I get I long list of files like:
rust: /usr/bin/cargo exists in filesystem
rust: /usr/bin/cargo-clippy exists in filesystem
[...]
rust: /usr/share/man/man1/rustdoc.1.gz exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

So I do not have rust install, I am unable to install it, and I get the "wrong magic bytes" error message when I run `yay`

As an arch noob, I am struggling to figure out what to try first! Hah!

there are 2 archlinux packages that provide /usr/bin/cargo, rust & rustup .

Please post pacman -Qs rust

Added

And please use code tags instead of ins . The yellow highlight hurts the eyes.

So no pacman-installed cargo providing package.

There probably was a rust/cargo install done by something else then pacman .

run and post the output of

$ cargo --version
$ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/cargo

$ grep " rust" /var/log/pacman.log

May be useful to see as well.
