I got this error trying to run nodejs

node: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.70: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

i tried updating using

sudo pacman -Syu

and i also tried removing nodejs and re-installing it with no help.

I use Arch btw.

  • I'm not going to vote to close this because it's kinda borderline on whether it's on-topic here, but it would be better on our [sister site unix & linux](https://unix.stackexchange.com/) – Jared Smith Dec 05 '21 at 00:58
  • Does this answer your question? [node: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.62: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55097675/node-error-while-loading-shared-libraries-libicui18n-so-62-cannot-open-shared) – David784 Dec 05 '21 at 01:00
  • @David784 arch sadly doesnt use apt. It uses pacman as its manager. so the process is kinda different. – NotAidan Dec 05 '21 at 01:02
  • The David784 link is about removing nodejs, and install a package that requires a "system libicu" version. ..... Alternatively you can install additional libicu : From source or with files from a package. Multiple versions are allowed, i.e. all libs have unique file names https://packages.debian.org/experimental/amd64/libicu70/filelist → Depends: libc6 (>= 2.29) .... ..... ( Can be unpacked with `ar -x [package-name].deb` ) – Knud Larsen Dec 05 '21 at 10:34
  • If you read the question, comments and answers, perhaps you saw @tjcrowder's comment? "A search on the error turns up several pages .... It's also important to tell us what research you've done (such as searching on the error message) and why what you found didn't help." – David784 Dec 05 '21 at 14:23
