Right after emerging jxplorer on my local machine, I tried starting it and got this error: wyvern@enigma ~ $ jxplorer starting JXplorer...

i can't reproduce your error and i think it seems to me that this isn't a problem of the ebuild itself but i'm not sure. however, maybe you want to test the new ebuild which makes it possible to save connections and options, see #63243. make sure that you also have a copy of every listed dependency ebuild in a local portage overlay directory because not all of them are in the portage tree yet.
there is a new version in the portage tree. please do 'emerge sync' in a few hours and try if that problem still exists.
if you're still experiencing problems with the new jxplorer version feel free to reopen this bug.
