SweetHome3D crash on start with Ubuntu 24.10 : library initialization failed - unable to allocate file descriptor table - out of memoryAbandon (core dumped)
Hi
After a fresh install of Ubuntu 24.10, and download and install of SweetHome3D-7.5-linux-x64, I got this error :
./SweetHome3D
library initialization failed - unable to allocate file descriptor table - out of memoryAbandon (core dumped)

The same problem occurs with the snap version of Sweethome3D 6.6 available in the Ubuntu app center:
sweethome3d-homedesign
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Duser.home=/home/xxxxxxxx/snap/sweethome3d-homedesign/15
library initialization failed - unable to allocate file descriptor table - out of memoryAbandon (core dumped)

Searching for this kind of error on web, it appears related to ulimit of java and recent changes in linux default limit for the number of open files...
However I did not find a clean way to manage the problem with Sweet Home 3D.

Help welcome :)
