Have you tried to run it without root privileges (without sudo)?

[cassiofb-dev]

Yep, I get the same result. I'm thinking the problem is something musl related, because dbeaver is available on void linux with glibc.

@cassiofb-dev Did you try giving it execute permission through chmod u+x dbeaver?

[cassiofb-dev]

I got the same result. @Destrolaric is there another way to check dynamic dependencies besides ldd?

Hello @cassiofb-dev,

What's the output of file ./dbeaver?

[cassiofb-dev]

Hi! By output you mean the contents? The file ./debaver is a Linux binary.

[ShadelessFox]

Not the contents. This is a Linux program used for determining file type. https://linux.die.net/man/1/file

[cassiofb-dev]

Sorry, I never had to use this command...

The output is:

[cassio@cassio dbeaver]$ file dbeaver
dbeaver: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, BuildID[sha1]=2f177540662891b66bfaff6ec2748390cbf9d123, with debug_info, not stripped, too many notes (256)

Ah, I see. You can't run applications linked against glibc on Void Linux with musl.

You will have to compile the entire SWT and other native libraries that Eclipse uses. I can't give you any specific details, sorry.

You could give a try for this open-source utility: https://github.com/gch1p/voidnsrun

Thanks, that's explained why it wasn't starting even when built on a musl system. I'll take some time to try the first approach building all tools on musl.
