Description:

It seems emacs-nox is lacking a dependency to gpm

Work-around: Manually installing an orphan gpm package solves this issue

Additional info:
* emacs-nox 28.1-5

Steps to reproduce:

In my case I had emacs-nox installed and did a complete system upgrade using pacman -Suy and emacs-nox stopped working.

Install emacs-nox, run it and you'll get:

emacs: error while loading shared libraries: libgpm.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
