Hi,
After one of the last Manjaro updates, I got this error when trying to start mpv
mpv: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libglslang.so.15: undefined symbol: spvValidatorOptionsSetAllowOffsetTextureOperand
And it seems that “glslang” was updated in the last couple of days.
The only solution was to remove glslang and install glslang-git from AUR . But the strange thing is, that both packages create the file /usr/lib/libglslang.so.15.2.0.
But I was under the expression that changes to the ABI should also change the version number.

I don’t see that error. You didn’t say how you are trying to start mpv either.
mpv --player-operation-mode=pseudo-gui
Try that… I get no terminal output and a clean pop-up MPV window asking me to drop files or URLs to play.
Other relevant information (I am on Testing branch, so I have glslang 15.2.0-2 and the same version of mpv that you have.

Oh sorry, I forgot to explain. ABI is the “API” a native executable uses to interact with libraries.

I try to start mpv by simply typing “mpv” into the command line.
Maybe something on my local setup is or was broken. I am not able to replicate the issue in a virtual machine (with the latest KDE Manjaro ISO).
I guess I will close the ticket here.
And MPV still works fine after switching back from glslang-git to glslang (even after a reboot). Maybe I tampered with glslang.so in the past.
