I'm working with libxml2 and xsltproc. But when I tried to install docbook-xml, pacman said:

"symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: undefined symbol: gzopen64"

Moreover, every command that uses libxml produces this error.
This task depends upon

I found solution. When install a new ArchLinux-Overlord system, library collection has not zlib that is very important library. Install zlib to resolve question.

zlib is a dependency of libxml2. Not updating your system to the latest zlib also causes this problem.

In fact, Allan, the old zlib contains gzopen symbol, and not gzopen64 (it is simply verifiable using objdump utility).
