First off, this was tested on Alpha 17 because Alpha 18 doesn't build on Arch Linux. It should still be there as the DllImport for libpsrpclient is still there in git master.

From what I understand, libpsrpclient was replaced by the psrp package, so a failure to find libpsrpclient is probably a bug.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create PSSession, my tests were done with -Authentication Credssp with a target of a Windows system
  2. Reproduce running new-pssession in a newly built PowerShell should not cause the shell to exit #3476, but if workaround is applied, reproduce this issue

Expected behavior

Get into a session.

Actual behavior

etsn : Unable to load DLL 'libpsrpclient': The specified module could not be found.
 (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
