Guys, This may just be on i686, but I'm trying to figure out what happened. During update this morning, postfix refused to start. The upgrade error was: (41/46) upgrading postfix [#######################################] 100% newaliases: error while loading shared libraries: libdb-5.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Attempting to start postfix without the &>/dev/null gave the same error (duh..) [09:27 providence:/var/cache/pacman/pkg] # /usr/sbin/postfix start /usr/sbin/postfix: error while loading shared libraries: libdb-5.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Looking for the file, I find it here: [09:27 providence:/var/cache/pacman/pkg] # locate libdb-5.1.so <snip archroot dirs> /usr/lib/libdb-5.1.so Looking for ownership -- it looks like the file is just gone: [09:28 providence:/var/cache/pacman/pkg] # pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libdb-5.1.so error: failed to read file '/usr/lib/libdb-5.1.so': No such file or directory [09:28 providence:/var/cache/pacman/pkg] # l /usr/lib/libdb* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2277786 Jun 14 19:30 /usr/lib/libdb-5.2.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1789876 Jun 14 19:30 /usr/lib/libdb-5.2.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jun 14 19:30 /usr/lib/libdb-5.so -> libdb-5.2.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2277786 Jun 14 19:30 /usr/lib/libdb.a <snip> OK, it looks like a missing link from db 5.2.28-1. On x86_64, I have the same thing, but postfix restarts just fine. What do we need to do to get postfix to look for libdb-5.2.so instead of libdb-5.1.so on x86? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
