Hello, I ran into a issue installing Maltego on Fedora 38.Followed these instructions and downloaded from the official site but I ran into this.

$ maltego egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E WARNING: package com.apple.eawt not in java.desktop java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Can't load library: /usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-17.0.8.0.7-1.fc38.x86_64/lib/libawt_xawt.so at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:2398) at java.base/java.lang.Runtime.load0(Runtime.java:755) at java.base/java.lang.System.load(System.java:1953) at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.NativeLibraries.load(Native Method) at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.NativeLibraries$NativeLibraryImpl.open(NativeLibraries.java:388) at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.NativeLibraries.loadLibrary(NativeLibraries.java:232) at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.NativeLibraries.loadLibrary(NativeLibraries.java:174) at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.NativeLibraries.findFromPaths(NativeLibraries.java:315) at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.NativeLibraries.loadLibrary(NativeLibraries.java:285) at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:2403) at java.base/java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:818) at java.base/java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:1989) at java.desktop/sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment$1.run(X11GraphicsEnvironment.java:67) at java.base/java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(AccessController.java:318) at java.desktop/sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment.initStatic(X11GraphicsEnvironment.java:64) at java.desktop/sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment.<clinit>(X11GraphicsEnvironment.java:59) at java.desktop/sun.awt.PlatformGraphicsInfo.createGE(PlatformGraphicsInfo.java:36) at java.desktop/java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment$LocalGE.createGE(GraphicsEnvironment.java:93) at java.desktop/java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment$LocalGE.<clinit>(GraphicsEnvironment.java:84) at java.desktop/java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment(GraphicsEnvironment.java:106) at org.netbeans.core.startup.Main.start(Main.java:228) at org.netbeans.core.startup.TopThreadGroup.run(TopThreadGroup.java:98) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:833)

Hi @gigaxavo , welcome to the community.

You’re probably missing a package that provides this shared library. Try this and install the package you think you need:

sudo dnf repoquery --whatprovides '*/libawt_xawt.so'

Or simply do this to install a missing file if you know the path

sudo dnf install /usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-17.0.8.0.7-1.fc38.x86_64/lib/libawt_xawt.so

You also could tell dnf to install that file with sudo dnf install */libawt_xawt.so and if it gives multiple package names then install only the one you think is appropriate.

I got this error whenI tried your way.

AMDGPU 5.5.3 repository                                                                                                                                                                                       438  B/s | 533  B     00:01    
Errors during downloading metadata for repository 'amdgpu':

Since this issue seems not related to the amdgpu in any way you might try adding
--disablerepo=amdgpu into the dnf command line so that error no longer appears.

Tried disabling the repo but nothing happened.

Solved the issue by opening the Software GUI and disabeling the repo, that seemed to only work for some odd reason.Then I just looked up what I was missing using sudo dnf repoquery --whatprovides '*/libawt_xawt.so' and Maltego works fine now.Thank you all for your advice and time.
