I am troubleshooting and issue by attempting to uninstall and reinstall zathura and zathura-pdf-poppler. After uninstalling:
sudo pacman -Rcns zathura
sudo pacman -Rcns zathura-pdf-poppler
My terminal still behaves like zathura still exists.
$ zathura --version
zathura: error while loading shared libraries: libgirara-gtk3.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I assume this is because I broke my packages somehow (maybe with yay) at some point when attempting to fix the zathura package.
When zathura and zathura-pdf-poppler are installed with pacman attempting to run zathura gives the error
error: Found no plugins. Please install at least one plugin.
Despite the fact that the plugins are installed in the correct directory:
$ cd /usr/lib/zathura; ls
libpdf-poppler.so pdf.so
But I don't know if this information is relevant or not.
This is all on Manjaro 23.0.4 with zsh.
I'm facing the same issue, zathura can be fully deleted by looking at where it is still located in your $PATH after you deleted it using pacman, for me this was in /usr/bin, I think this might be due to an update that they moved the execution file without removing the old one. I still have the issue with libgirara-gtk3.so.3 after reinstalling and it's because it doesn't exist anymore, it's now libgirara-gtk3.so.4 ... So I'm guessing they updated girara whilst zathura is not jet updated in the arch linux repository, so I managed to get it to work by building from source.
