telegram-desktop: error while loading shared libraries: libabsl_strings.so.2308.

Hello!! After latest upgrade telegram-desktop is not working.

telegram-desktop: error while loading shared libraries: libabsl_strings.so.2308.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hello!! Thank you. Ran sudo pacman -Syu and my system says there is nothing to do. Still getting the same error.. I'll wait for the next telegram upgrade then. Thank you!!

Have the same issue with a non-loading Telegram app. This began to occur after a lone QT5 upgrade yesterday. This same show-stopping sequence has occurred before, so Telegram must depend on QT-5.

What to do ?

tested on 2 updated systems, and telegram-desktop starts ok on both
make sure no arch pkgs interfere
without more details there's no telling what's wrong with your system

I uninstalled it and all of it's required packages and tried to reinstall it and I get a corrupted package error
Code: [Select]
error: libdispatch: signature from "Artix Buildbot <[email protected]>" is invalid
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libdispatch-5.5.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).

I removed the corrupted packages and tried again and it installed and is working now. Thanks for the help.

Tried running Telegram and got the following screens in the Terminal;
"
# pacman telegram -Ss

galaxy/telegram-desktop 4.15.2-2.1 [installed]
    Official Telegram Desktop client

extra/telegram-desktop 4.15.2-2 [installed: 4.15.2-2.1]
    Official Telegram Desktop client

# telegram-desktop 4.15.2-2

# telegram-desktop 4.15.2-2.1

Seems that this is the same error that "sticksix" mentioned above.

Stickxix : Did you downgrade and get telegram working again ?

Thanks, in advance.

I did what sticksix did to fix it. The same positive results occurred - Telegram  works again.

Thanks
