Posted this in irc but no one was around:
18:53 < sam_s> i'm having some issues running etxreal, when I run etxreal in 64
bit mode it deletes the file ui.mp.x86_64.so then errors out
because its not there
I was then quickly told that this was wrong because etxreal doesn't delete files:
20:30 <@megatog615> wtf?
20:30 <@megatog615> etxreal doesnt delete files
so I used strace to find more info:
21:38 < sam_s> from strace: access("/home/sam/.etxreal/etmain/ui.mp.x86_64.so",
R_OK) = 0
21:38 < sam_s> unlink("/home/sam/.etxreal/etmain/ui.mp.x86_64.so") = 0
21:38 < sam_s> access("/home/sam/.etxreal/etmain/ui.mp.x86_64.so", R_OK) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
21:39 < sam_s> megatog615: that is *RIGHT* after the "sound memory manager" is
started
21:49 < sam_s> more of the strace before and after:

Then after figuring out developer mode execution, I find the error deleting the file:
22:19 * sam_s finds this after dinking around with gdb and digging through the
source code and then running 'etxreal +set developer 1': 'clearing
non matching version of ui .so:
/home/sam/.etxreal/etmain/ui.mp.x86_64.so'
It's important to note that just to be sure I did not have non-matching version of the file I redownloaded the 7z again from this website, and it still deleted ui.mp.x86_64.so when executed.
