Description Karl Schulz 2008-01-16 11:13:13 UTC
usr/bin/opera tries to preload Java libraries:
--
LD_PRELOAD="libjvm.so:libawt.so:${OPERA_LD_PRELOAD}"
--

on non-java systems. This leads to the following error messages:
--
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libjvm.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libawt.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
--

Reproducible: Always

It's harmless. It's not even a bug. :)

If you really want to get rid of the messages, then simply comment out lines 190 and 197 in /usr/bin/opera (or if the line numbers would change, the lines right below the lines that say:

# To disable the first workaround, comment the next line.

and

    # To disable the second workaround, comment the next line.

I know.

Yes, but with the next update the changes are gone. It's a pretty ugly design to assume such crappy libraries on a system and spam the user with error messages.
