Eclipse 2022-06 crashes under Linux openSUSE 15.4 (KDE Plasma) about .github HOT 5 CLOSED

The openSUSE Team is already aware and working on a solution:

You're most likely facing eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt#281 . Please make sure you fully update your Suse and tell us the webkitgtk version you have installed.

Hi @akurtakov,

thanks for the quick reply. It looks as if in fact I am running the affected webkitgtk version:

libwebkit2gtk-4_1-0-2.36.5-150400.4.9.1.x86_64
libwebkit2gtk-4_0-37-2.36.5-150400.4.9.1.x86_64

I will attempt to downgrade the rpms manually.

Howto/Tip:
This "Hack" worked for me (thanks again to @akurtakov for pointing out the real problem):

Downloaded the "old" rpms (ymmv):

• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/x86_64/libwebkit2gtk-4_0-37-2.36.0-150400.2.13.x86_64.rpm
• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/x86_64/libwebkit2gtk-4_1-0-2.36.0-150400.2.13.x86_64.rpm
• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/x86_64/libjavascriptcoregtk-4_0-18-2.36.0-150400.2.13.x86_64.rpm
• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/x86_64/libjavascriptcoregtk-4_1-0-2.36.0-150400.2.13.x86_64.rpm
• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/noarch/WebKit2GTK-4.0-lang-2.36.0-150400.2.13.noarch.rpm
• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/noarch/WebKit2GTK-4.1-lang-2.36.0-150400.2.13.noarch.rpm
• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/x86_64/webkit2gtk-4_0-injected-bundles-2.36.0-150400.2.13.x86_64.rpm
• https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/x86_64/webkit2gtk-4_1-injected-bundles-2.36.0-150400.2.13.x86_64.rpm

Then unpacked all those RPMs "next" to my eclipse installation folder (mine is /workspace/eclipse-binaries):

cd /workspace/eclipse-binaries
rpm2cpio <RPM> | cpio -id
# rinse and repeat for each rpm

The above created the "normal" file structure usr/lib usr/lib64 usr/share etc...
Then I added the .../usr/lib64 path as an ld preload to my startup script:

#!/bin/sh
export GIT_SSH=/usr/bin/ssh
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/workspace/eclipse-binaries/usr/lib64
cd /workspace/eclipse-binaries/eclipse-jee-2022-06-R
./eclipse $* &

And now everything seems to work properly :-)

Hope this helps others until we have a fixed version available.
