Latest update broke my install

Just update my pp a few minutes ago and now it's stucked at arch penguim loading forever

This happened to me last week when I was away, so I couldn't even SSH in.

I looked yesterday and it was missing a .so for libgnome session or something. Sorry I forget now. Anyway, I didn't have the package in the cache so couldn't downgrade to test it. I've stuck my trusty PMOS SD card in the phone for now until I've got the energy to tackle it!

I've just had another look at this after a full update...

Code:

Nov 15 10:04:56 pine64 phosh[3557]: /usr/bin/phoc: error while loading shared libraries: libgnome-desktop-3.so.19: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

gnome-desktop owns

Code:

/usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-3.so
/usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-3.so.20
/usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-3.so.20.0.0

Downgrading gnome-desktop didn't work as I don't have old enough packages in the cache. I also tried combos of phosh and phoc with it but have limited older copies.

I had to symlink just to be able to successfully load the desktop...

Code:

ln -s /usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-3.so.20.0.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-3.so.19

But "Settings" fails with

Code:

error while loading shared libraries: libgnome-bg-4.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So more symlinks...

Code:

ln -s /usr/lib/libgnome-bg-4.so.2.0.1 /usr/lib/libgnome-bg-4.so.1
ln -s /usr/lib/libgnome-rr-4.so.2.0.1 /usr/lib/libgnome-rr-4.so.1

Other things may fail to run as well but for now I can use my phone. Obviously it is not advisable to symlink system libraries but I have no option at this moment and will revert them as soon as is possible.

Is nobody else having this issue with a fully updated Arch?

I am having troubles. Every time my PPP suspends due to inactivity, it won't wake the screen again.
Blue LED in upper left corner blinks steadily. The volume buttons still work, I can hear them and it'll ring and give notifications. Power button holding will restart it; and it'll work til sleep again.
I've tried adjusting Settings to prevent it from Power Saving to no avail.
Gnome loads, everything works normal. I just cannot let it sleep.

My problem was worse, I could not even start the phone. In the end I just reflashed, now all updated and working fine.

Ok, my bad, I forgot I was using the testing repo

I reverted my symlinks and re-installed the normal repo version of phoc and phosh, all is working again.

However, I kept the updated versions of eg25-manager and modemmanager

Apologies for the noise.

I'm grateful for this tread as I was wondering whether to update my Archlinux system. I now know not to.

I'm using my PinePhone as my main phone - not recommended I know, but my Nexus 5 (UBPorts) is failing. I think I must have tried almost all the distributions so far and although Arch Linux Posh is a bit quirky, on the PP, all normal phone functions work for me.

Keep your system up to date, if something goes wrong search for solution or reflash.

I have. I'm now on Manjaro Phosh most of which is working.
