I don’t know if this could also relate to the Samba issue, but I’m finding various network commands (nslookup, dig, host) fail with the error:

error while loading shared libraries: libjson-c.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I just encountered this on a system which had not yet installed this latest large update. After installing the update and rebooting, this error still occurs.

I do find some search hits on this from Arch, like https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/57030. This thread says it was due to an AUR package needing rebuilding, but I get the same error on my test system which doesn’t have much CCR stuff installed. I’ll take another look when I have a chance to boot into it again, but I thought I should report this here in case others are encountering it.

Update: it turns out those network tools are themselves from a CCR package dnsutils! So I guess they need rebuilding. (My bad…I thought those were basic enough to be part of the core system.)

Further Update: Looks like dnsutils has been removed from CCR…have those utilities moved to some other package?
