Darktable crashing on libavif

Software darktable
1

I’m running Manjaro, fully updated all packages but one of the latest updates killed Darktable.

DT start is crashing with:
darktable: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libavif.so.13: undefined symbol: kYvuV2020Constants

Versions:
darktable-2:3.6.1-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
libavif-0.9.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

I tried downgrading DT to 2.3.6.1 which worked before and libavif to 0.9.2-1 but that doesn’t work either. Maybe this is Arch-related but for now I’m stuck. First time I get symbol issues after an update on this 3-year install wwith running updates.

Any ideas? Or should I ask around on the Manjaro forum?

do you mean 3.6.1???

manjaro or you need to rebuild darktable against the new libavif. no DT bug per se.

Thanks to all here and elsewhere who tried to help I found this somewhat older reference: Re: darktable libavif libyuv update and undefined symbol (Arch Linux General Discussion)

Turns out I had an old git version of libyuv hanging around. Removing it and reinstalling from regular repo was all DT needed.
