|The PKGBUILD has this line twice : export 
CLASSPATH=/usr/share/java/swt.jar:$CLASSPATH That makes tuxguitar use 
the archlinux SWT version. The problems likely come from arch SWT being 
newer then wat tuxguitar expects. Try building the package yourself with 
those lines commented. Note that you need to make sure the tuxguitar 
provided swt.jar is included in the package. |
