Hmm, those three shouldn't be the guilty party.
Here's a bug report from the redhat bugtracker that details what kind
of goofiness you can expect from corrupt hdd sectors/hard powerdowns:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=488449#c11
I'd check your logs to see if there is anything about "cleaning up
orphan inodes" or such, meaning that it lost part of or a whole file.
nothing
First, clean your pacman cache, just in case one of the cached
packages got corrupted. pacman -Scc
Done
To get you back running, first try reinstalling libwebkit,
desktop-file-utils, and libnotify. Those are the three depends in
common between midori and epiphany.
So I think we can rule out desktop-file-utils. Brasero, Gimp, and
Firefox depend on this and they work. I'm not sure if libnotify and
libwebkit should be suspect either at this point because I've discovered
that soffice and gnome-settings-daemon do this as well now.
Then try to resync the base group: (I do this every time I have a
sudden poweroff and orphaned inodes)
pacman -Scc
pacman -Syy base base-devel (base-devel if you compile stuff regularly
or use the AUR/ABS)
Did that.
If that doesn't work, try reinstalling midori and epiphany.
Did that.
If that fails, try reinstalling all the deps of midori, epiphany, and
any other program that throws a segfault in ld
And if that fails? Well, I'm out of ideas then. Keep us posted.
I'm out of ideas too, because they still segfault. Crap.
I guess I could reinstall the system, but doesn't seem like the way to
go here. I have X working with wmii. I just have nasty looking window
decorations and random productivity Applications that don't work.
Is there a way to de-install everything that's NOT in base? I looked
around for this, and will I could certainly create a command line chain
for it something like "pacman -R --all !base" would be nice
