game crashes on start, unable to find version information for libcurl-gnutls.so.4

Good evening,

I am unable to launch the game on Arch linux due to the error "./dontstarve_steam: /usr/lib32/libcurl-gnutls.so.4: no version information available (required by ./dontstarve_steam)"  when I start it from command line.  I have the latest lib32-libcurl-gnutls with versioning information installed.  Below is the entirety of the output when I ./dontstarve from in the "Don't Starve Together/bin" directory.

I feel like I did something stupid and broke it, I just have no clue what and I have tried everything I can think of.

Thanks!

$ ./dontstarve

User Feedback


Couple ideas:
Do you have /usr/lib32/libcurl-gnutls.so.4 file? If don't and you have something like /usr/lib32/libcurl-gnutls.so.4.X.X.X link it to [...]so.4, if you don't have any file libcurl-gnutls.so.4* in lib32, find it on your system and link it there.

Check if you have installed only one curl in system (eg.  AUR and repo)

If you are using wayland try xorg instead.

This is your system configuration problem so devs probably won't help you. 
Google "
/usr/lib32/libcurl-gnutls.so.4: no version information available"

Thank you, like I said in the OP, I feel like I am missing something simple, I believe it was a version mismatch between two libraries.  once I ran a -Syu it was fixed.  Thought I ran a system update recently but I guess not recently enough.
