libswmhack breaks MATLAB R2018a/2019a #209

Closed mattpusey closed 11 months ago

mattpusey commented 6 years ago

At least on my Debian Stretch system (meaning spectrwm 3.0.2), libswmhack prevents MATLAB R2018a from loading. The splash screen appears for a bit but then it bails out with "libswmhack.so: ERROR: /usr/lib/spectrwm/libswmhack.so.0.0: undefined symbol: XtAppNextEvent" plus some other stuff on stderr: matlab_errors.txt

No other applications seem affected, and if I run "LD_PRELOAD= matlab" then MATLAB works as normal.

I still have the same error message with MATLAB R2019a and spectrwm 3.2.0 on Debian Buster. Here's the new crash report.

KSPAtlas commented 2 years ago

I had the same issue, but with a different program. spectrwm should really unset LD_PRELOAD

LordReg commented 11 months ago

276 (included in 3.5.0) should have fixed this. Please reopen if it is still an issue.

This is still an issue for some applications, see #559. [EDIT] Nevermind, it turned out to be a different problem.
