[arch-general] libxxx.so.yy not found

[Alexey Ramodin]

Hi all,

Once i've upgraded some pkgs I have some errors that a program cannot start because a lib is not found.
For example I need libkrb5.so.22 but:
$ ls /usr/lib/libkrb5.so

lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root     17 2009-01-08 02:40 /usr/lib/libkrb5.so -> libkrb5.so.25.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     17 2009-01-08 02:40 /usr/lib/libkrb5.so.25 -> libkrb5.so.25.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 471594 2009-01-08 02:41 /usr/lib/libkrb5.so.25.0.0

So, I have the lib but a little bit newer.

Making a link on libkrb5.so.25.0.0 solves the problem. At least it looks so.

lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root     17 2009-01-08 02:40 /usr/lib/libkrb5.so.22 -> libkrb5.so.25.0.0

I've done the same for some other libs (ut to 10... )

The question is simple, is it a way or i'll have my arch unworkable in the future?

(i know about pacman -Syu ....)
