[Solved] SimpleScreenRecorder stop working : error with libavformat

Hi,

I use weekly SimpleScreenRecording to make screencast, but few days ago, I got an error when the launch :

simplescreenrecorder: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.61: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have search a lot before to post here, but I don't find the way to solve this.
Do you know how I can solve this issue ?

You'll need to rebuild it against the new library.

Mod note: moving to AUR Issues.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.
