When I try to install anything via yaourt i get this error "xz: error while loading shared libraries: liblzma.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". I have a fully updated system.
A while ago I was caught with a (partial) update deleting the liblzma.so.0 file (that my installed version of pacman needed) by "updating" it to libzlma.so.5. Maybe double check everything is fully up-to-date. For instance on my computer I have xz 5 installed:
$ pacman -Qo "$(which xz)" /usr/bin/xz is owned by xz 5.0.0-1 $ ldd "$(which xz)" . . . liblzma.so.5 => /usr/lib/liblzma.so.5 (0x00007f8794f87000) . . . $ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/liblzma.so.5 /usr/lib/liblzma.so.5 is owned by xz 5.0.0-1
Maybe reinstall xz 5, in case something has overwritten it with an older version?

Heres the output of the following commands in my system: $ pacman -Qo "$(which xz)" error: No package owns /usr/local/bin/xz $ ldd "$(which xz)" linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff6c9ff000) liblzma.so.0 => not found libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f2f0a544000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f2f0a1e8000) /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f2f0a761000) $ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/liblzma.so.5 /usr/lib/liblzma.so.5 is owned by xz 5.0.0-1 Can you guys make anything out of this? Cheers & Happy new year.
