[ S O L V E D ] - cower: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

If you are getting this error:

cower: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


after upgrading your arch system, don't worry.

You will have to rebuild cower.

Download the cower package  cower-14-2 from the AUR repository.


From the command line go to where you downloaded the package, and type:

$ tar -zxvf
$ cower.tar.gz

$ cd cower

$ makepkg -sri


You will be prompted for a password as pacman needs it to install it.



done!

  1. Right on! Been getting this error a bit, glad someone else was too and got a fix. I guess it would be as simple as reloading cower.
