Very basic dependencies

We recently moved our continuous integration builds to a new server. The builds are set up self-contained or have only little dependencies to files outside their workspace. So it shouldn’t be a big deal: Just set up the new projects in your CI server and copy over the settings from the old projects, right?

And if you then get an error that even Google knows only 2 pages of useless results about, you start scratching your head. At least I did after I got this one: java java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no swt-pi-gtk-3346 or swt-pi-gtk in swt.library.path, java.library.path or the jar file It gets a bit more mysterious when you start looking for the swt-pi-gtk libraries, locate them in one of the SWT fragments, and you make sure that all your “-os” “-ws” and “-arch” options are set correctly.

To make the long story short, the solution was to install GTK on the new server…
