In order to get rid of annoying update messages at startup, go into Tools > Options > Interface > Start. Disable the 'Check for latest version" and 'Auto download updates' options.

Also disable 'Enable plugin update checking' in Tools > Options > Plugins > Plugin Update.

This line in /usr/bin/biglybt/ causes BiglyBT to only work on IPv4:

JAVA_PROPS="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true"

Please consider commenting it out.

Here's an upstream discussion about it:

kinghat, installing jna (from aur) or a installing a jdk should fix the issue.

ector, it is always a good idea to be sceptical of AUR packages generally (after all, anyone can submit them) and especially if a PKGBUILD wants to execute an external shell file.

Here, the PKGBUILD is doing the same as you would do manually, it executes the installer provided as a shell script from the BiglyBT developers. If you do not trust them, download the installer yourself from their homepage and inspect it before installing this package.

Wow. I thought that maybe this could be improved so I deleted the link to libswt-gtk-4924r25.so and then restarted BiglyBT. BiglyBT remade libswt-gtk-4934r5.so the instant I opened it. The file is different than the libswt-gtk-4934r5.so that was already on it, ie. different sum. It appears that libswt-gtk-4934r5.so was corrupt. If anyone else has the problem then rename that file so BiglyBT can remake the file.

Thanks mrxx. Got it working. When I saw your post the first thing I thought of is that Manjaro didn't offer openjdk 14. I had 13 as the default because that was the highest version I had. I installed jdk 14 from the AUR and set it as default but I get the exact same error. Maybe its an Arch vs. Manjaro thing going on here. So I then uninstalled jdk 14 since that wasn't it. Then I noticed that libswt-gtk-4934r5.so is actually on my computer and biglybt is loading it. I left out a part of the error message because I had to type it in. Something about a PowerPC library was not compatible with an AMD platform. So I renamed the libswt-gtk-4934r5.so file to libswt-gtk-4934r5.so.bak and made a link from libswt-gtk-4924r25.so to libswt-gtk-4934r5.so. This last part fixed it. Your post helped immensely. Thanks again.
