Description:

Yesterday after upgrading packages I rebooted and my display manager failed to start.

The error:

org.gnome.Shell.desktop[]: /usr/bin/gnome-shell: error while loading shared libraries: libpipewire-0.1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I resolved the issue by manually installing the package pipewire 0.1.9-3 (not an up to date version) which contains that file.


Additional info:
* gnome-shell: 3.28.3-1


Steps to reproduce:

Nothing in the gnome-shell package is linked to libpipewire* at all, let alone an old version. This is most likely from a partial update, or you have something local (AUR or otherwise) that needs rebuilt. You can use lddtree from the pax-utils package to help find it.
