emacs: error loading shared libraries (SOLVED)

geek.arnuld · 2007-06-07 19:49:40

i have installed Arch64 Duke and did these:

pacman -Syu
pacman -S emacs

when i try to run emacs i get this error:

[arnuld@arch ~]$ emacs
emacs: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

what is the solution ?

BTW, i don't see any dependency containing name "asound" in it:

i just installed "alsa-utils" and emacs is working now. it is new version of Emacs 22.1 and it depends on alsa-lib.

quite strange for me

I noticed this while building it, but did not think it would be an issue right at startup, darn. I'll see what I can do to rebuild it without that depend.
