Re: [aur-general] ERROR: ld.so: object 'libfakeroot.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.

I am not able to install any package using 'yaourt' (although I can using pacman). No matter what package I try to install I end up with same error again and again, and it asks me to rebuild that package again. Error:

So, uh, did you actually export LD_PRELOAD? Why did you not tell us about that, and do you have any understanding of what either the shell's 'export' feature and LD_PRELOAD are? cheers! mar77i
