The Java 7 release seems to have broken the LWJGL project on Linux, it no longer works
and complains that "libjawt.so" is not loaded. The project has been calling the
following method: java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit(); to ensure that this native file
is loaded, this has worked fine for the last 6 or so years. There seems to have been some
internal change which causes this to break. Any idea's on what it could be and how to fix
this?
There is some more information on the LWJGL forum here
http://lwjgl.org/forum/index.php/topic,4085.0.html
Some people have found a workaround using "sudo ldconfig
/opt/java/jre/lib/amd64/" which they claim allows it to work as before, but doesn't
really explain why its failing, any idea's or pointers would be appreciated.
I've cc'ed the AWT dev folk as they should know what has changed in 7.
