TS3 not launching - incompatible with libxml2

./ts3client_linux_amd64: error while loading shared libraries: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Installed libxml2 version: 2.14.2
Distro: Arch Linux

i fixed it by putting libxml2.so.2 in the /opt/teamspeak3/

should still be in your cache if u didnt clear it
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/libxml2-2.13.8-1.1-x86_64_v4.pkg.tar.zst
extract it and take the libxml2.so.2.13.8 and rename it to libxml2.so.2 and put it in the /opt/teamspeak3/

This was solved on Arch by adding a libxml2-legacy package and making ts3 depend on it.

There is no guarantee other distros will do this though and the official version provided on teamspeak.com is still affected.
