ok this is wrong....
 

I keep getting the following error:

$./LimeWireLinux.bin
Preparing to install...
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installer for this system's environment...

Launching installer...

Error: could not find libjava.so
Error: could not find Java 2 Runtime Environment.


regardless of the fact that I have libjava.so installed and ldconfig -p show me:
$sudo ldconfig -p | grep java

I did have some problems with a few of the shared object libraries being registered with ld.so so it could be due to some binary incompatibility that I am not aware of.

if anyone has any suggestions let me know

btw I am running debian sid (which is termed as unstable mostly this is a misnomer as it has crashed less than most other distro's)

Thanks in advance

did you add java to your path before running the install?
