Hi. I'm using the core, extra, community and unstable repos on my ArchLinux i686 setup and just now did a "pacman -Syu". Since then, I cannot start Gnome (and other programs): --($ /Arch/Cache)-- avahi-browse avahi-browse: error while loading shared libraries: libdbus-1.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory --($ /Arch/Cache)-- gnome-terminal gnome-terminal: error while loading shared libraries: libdbus-1.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory And indeed, there's no "libdbus-1.so.3" file on my system anymore. I updated the following packages: Pakete (8): bzr-1.8-1 [4.28 MB] dbus-1.2.3-3 [0.03 MB] fuse-2.7.4-1 [0.14 MB] libsigc++2.0-2.2.3-1 [4.43 MB] man-pages-3.11-1 [4.17 MB] openoffice-base-3.0.0-2 [140.99 MB] sdl-1.2.13-3 [0.60 MB] tzdata-2008h-1 [0.53 MB] I suppose the update of "dbus-1.2.3-3" caused the problem. Was it correct that libdbus-1.so.3 got deleted? FWIW, I also filed this as a bug -> http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11831 Cheers, Michael -- GMX Kostenlose Spiele: Einfach online spielen und Spaß haben mit Pastry Passion! http://games.entertainment.gmx.net/de/entertainment/games/free/puzzle/6169196
