There has been a new major version of libalpm released with the latest version of the pacman package. This means that PacFinder will fail to start if it was built against the previous version.
pacfinder: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If you encounter this error then you should perform rebuild and reinstall of PacFinder to get it working again.
For a deeper explanation, and example commands, please see my comment on the issue on GitHub: https://github.com/stevenbenner/pacfinder/issues/11
