Description of your problem

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Start 3.0.2 on OSX from the terminal

   3.
   

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected silent startup. Instead I see:

Obviously this is a very minor issue, and I'm only reporting it here in case it points to another more serious problem. Thank you for a great project!

Could you run in a terminal

export EVENT_NOKQUEUE=1

and try again?

[lxkain]

That fixes it, yes.

[ccordoba12]

I took that from here: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/475#issuecomment-231527324

It seems you need to update libevent to fix those errors :-)

[lxkain]

OK, seems like it's harmless, thanks for the background.

[ccordoba12]

No prob :-)

[CoderCoderCoder]

Fixed by "brew reinstall libevent"

@ccordoba12

@themanutdmaniac I am having the same experience.

I typed this in the terminal and it didn't change anything

export EVENT_NOKQUEUE=1

also did these based on reading other related issues

brew update
brew reinstall libevent
brew install --HEAD tmux

but no change

[ccordoba12]

The warning is harmless. Please ignore it.

This command "export EVENT_NOKQUEUE=1" did not work on my computer.

I fixed this issue on my computer by uninstalling and reinstalling anaconda.

[Neven47]

Thank you, it fixed it.

Though harmless it is still irritating. And I am getting
Failed to compute left/right minimum bearings for "GB18030 Bitmap"
along with it afterwards. Can't find it's permanent solution.

[x-R4y]

export EVENT_NOKQUEUE=1 did not work for me either.
Neither did libevent reinstallation, update or anaconda reinstallation..
is there anything left to try?
Also, does the error cause any substantial malfunction or can it be disregarded?

[mabovo]

Thank you, it fixed it.
