same issue on xubuntu 20.04, fails with:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Failed to locate library: liblwjgl.so
the library is present on the system.

I have the same issue on MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 after trying to build the project myself.
Using Java 15.0.2, Maven 3.8.5, and the following:

mvn -Djavacpp.platform=macosx-x86_64 -Dlwjgl.natives=natives-macos clean package
java -jar target/png-upscale-1.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Then clicking the 'Load' button causes the following 'NSInternalInconsistencyException' exception:

This seems potentially relevant to a similar issue adoptium/adoptium-support#101 potentially related to compatibility with MacOS.

idk what is this error, but is the "lwjgl, lwjgl-utils, lwjgl-platform" libraries loaded in built path/configure build path/libraries?

[NAICOLAS]

Yeah, the load button doesn't work for me on macOS Monterey 12.6

[umjammer]

according to
https://hub.jmonkeyengine.org/t/macos-nswindow-drag-regions-should-only-be-invalidated-on-the-main-thread/43523/2
it's necessary -XstartOnFirstThread for running lwjgl on mac. but -XstartOnFirstThread kills the swing.

so i used rococoa like
https://github.com/umjammer/vavi-image-filter-dnnsuperres/blob/1.0.1/src/test/java/com/github/araxeus/dnnsuperres/MainApp.java#L419-L451
it works on my env

lwjgl needs to run on main thread in brief.

BUT is it really needed to use lwjgl in the first place?
this project used lwjgl for the native looking file chooser only.
afaik awt file chooser has nearly native file chooser looking, isn't it?

Well I'm on win10 and the JFileChooser is pretty ugly and doesn't resemble the native one.
when I made this program I wanted the file chooser to feel good and lwjgl had the most complete native file chooser that I could find

[umjammer]

sorry, i mean not swing JFileChooser but awt FileDialog (i pasted mistaken url...)
of cause i know the swing file chooser is different from the native one.

[Araxeus]

Its still not very pretty and doesn't really look like the native one ^-^

[umjammer]

oh that make sense 👍
