So now it is time to try to run pacman:
$ pacman --help -bash: /home/luke/archtest/usr/bin/pacman: No such file or directory
Arch binaries assume the dynamic linker to be in /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, while most (all?) other distributions assume it to be in /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2:
$ readelf -a $(which pacman) | grep interpreter [Requesting program interpreter: /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2] $ readelf -a /some/mandriva/binary | grep interpreter [Requesting program interpreter: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2]
The "No such file or directory" is very misleading here, as the file that it is trying to open is the program interpreter, not pacman itself.
A symlink should suffice: # ln -s /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib/
This problem does not exist on i686: The dynamic linker is /lib/ld-linux.so.2 here, on Arch or on any distribution out there.
Ach, thank you. I will update the page. You are right: $ ls /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 $ ls /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 ls: cannot access /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: No such file or directory Regards, Luke PS. In meantime I just compiled pacman :) -- Łukasz Nowak IT Specialist email@lnowak.com http://lnowak.com/ Skype: Shufla jid: shufla@jabster.pl gg: 1157726 ``Use the Source, Luke...''
