Ok, first question: how did you install these applications? Was it an Arch package or from source? Or even another packager like PIP?

Thanks in advance. > Well, it looks like your python installation is messed up. Hence my question about installing from source. Could you try to use these (broken) applications as another user? With a bit of luck, it's only the personal environment that got broken. If it doesn't work with another user, then you might have corrupted the files. Perhaps that can be fixed by reinstalling the packages (from a known good source), otherwise it's probably time to reinstall Arch completely and restore the user data from backup. Of course, this being Linux, you could also opt to check each file under /usr with pacman. (Can this be done the other way around? By letting pacman test the integrity of each installed pkg?). There's nothing wrong with a little manual work, I'm just guessing that starting from scratch might be faster, depending on the damage. Mvg, Guus Snijders
