[SOLVED] telegram-desktop: error while loading shared libraries: libvpx.so.7

Hello all. After upgrade today Telegram is not opening.
Code: [Select]
telegram-desktop: error while loading shared libraries: libvpx.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried to downgrade "libvpx" but there was an ffmpeg update and it breaks dependency.

Code: [Select]
 
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing libvpx (1.12.0-2) breaks dependency 'libvpx.so=8-64' required by ffmpeg
:: installing libvpx (1.12.0-2) breaks dependency 'libvpx.so=8-64' required by ffmpeg4.4

Thinking Telegram may need another update now? Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks

Try another update now, I had this conflict earlier today, now it succeeded, Telegram works for me

I just tried an update and now I get
Code: [Select]
error: failed to synchronize all databases (no servers configured for repository)

No idea what is going on here. hmmm

I noticed there was an Arch keyring update so I checked pacman.conf and my arch repos are still correct, everything commented out except what I'm using [extra] and [community]

I found the answer to this issue from another post. The arch-mirrors list was overwritten and all mirrors commented out. I was able to update but Telegram still fails to open for me. I still get.

telegram-desktop was rebuilt once more as telegram-desktop-4.6.5-2.1 and should start OK now
