I do understand that you can't mix 32bit and 64bit libraries. What I dont understand is why a 32bit appication, like Eclipse, is trying to load a 64bit library?
It's not eclipse, but Gnome: Strace32 shows that eclipse loads lots of 32bit libs, and then, after the GUI is already visible, it tries to load /opt/gnome/lib64/pango/1.2.0/modules/pango-basic-xft.so This comes from /etc/opt/gnome/pango/pango.modules, where the path is hardcoded. you can change that by hand, and it will work. (until you try to use pango with a 64bit appi :-( )
The 32bit pango libraries are installed too. Here's what I have related to pango:
rpm -qa|grep -i pango pango-32bit-9.0-0 pango-devel-1.2.5-25 pango-1.2.5-25
BTW I noticed that I don't have a /opt/gnome/lib/pkgconfig directory on my AMD64 system. I'm not sure if this is a big deal actually but I noticed that this directory is used in an environment variable on my x86 Suse 9.0 system. I do have a /opt/gnome/lib64/pkgconfig directory however.
This is just for development, it's mainly used for configuration (not for runtime)
My system has the lastest online updates and everything else works fine.
