I ran slackpkg-update last week. No problems. I ran again this week ...

Is this an easy fix? Anyone else having this issue?

# virt-manager

ImportError: libyajl.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

That's not included in Slackware, so if it's missing that's not anything caused by our package updates.

Also, the term "14.2-current" makes me wonder what you did there, exactly. If you did an update from 14.2 to -current, that has the potential to break things where shared libraries jumped to new .so.version numbers. But either way, libyajl isn't in our jurisdiction.

Hey you!

Ok, grabbed the latest virt-manager from Slackbuilds and (75 minutes later) Ta-dahhhh! It works.

I didn't know you couldn't just turn on -current in the mirrors and go. Interesting. That explains a lot! haha!
