If you follow the links from the front-page news, you'll end up at <https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1126667#p1126667> or <https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1127251#p1127251>. Cheers, Tom

You should have checked the news announcement [0] before updating. Remember never to use --force again unless you really really know what you are doing. As for repairing your system, the wiki page [1] links to two possible solutions when you used --force when updating glibc, I suggest you start with trying them. regards Alex [0] https://www.archlinux.org/news/the-lib-directory-becomes-a-symlink/ [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:usrlib

Boot install image, mount stuff to /mnt, update system, reinstall broken packages. pacman -Qkq can be of great help btw. You might also want to rebuild the initcpio.
