undefined symbol while trying to run g_bus_own_name on Suse

Question

I have downloaded eclipse on my Suse enterprise and am trying to run eclipse (From MobaXterm, have terminal access only with XServer installed). I keep on getting the following error when I run ./eclipse

~/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/450/0/.cp/libswt-pi-gtk-4919.so: undefined symbol: g_bus_own_name

Any ideas?

Answer 1

GNOME Developer: Owning Bus Names shows that g_bus_own_name was added in 2.26. You don't say which version of SUSE enterprise you're running; I suspect that your SUSE version comes with an earlier GTK version. You should be able to run rpm -q gtk2 to determine the GTK version installed on your system.
