Details

It seem that with the latest readline update its libs changed position.
During last pacman -Syu I noticed that sh looks for them in /usr/lib but they are in /lib
So we should either put readline libs back in /usr/lib or recompile all package that depends on readline
This task depends upon

Either you have a f*cked up ld.so.cache (run ldconfig, please), or you're complaining about the "readline.so not found" message during the upgrade.

readline should be in /lib, because otherwise systems with /usr on a different partition won't be able to boot.

pacman updates ld.so.cache after upgrading readline, so all apps will still be able to find the libraries without a rebuild.

Try it. Upgrade readline, then run ldd on a readline-dependent binary.
