Apparantly, the LD_PRELOAD variable is preserved which causes the error message because the VGL faker library is not loaded anymore. I've tested it by copying /usr/bin/printenv, chown it to root and chmod it to 2755. Tests: $ env -i sh -c 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/ LD_PRELOAD=libc.so.6 printenv' LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/ LD_PRELOAD=libc.so.6 PWD=/tmp $ env -i sh -c 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/ LD_PRELOAD=libc.so.6 ./printenv' ERROR: ld.so: object 'libc.so.6' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. PWD=/tmp This issue also occurs if the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is cleared by a wrapper program/ script. I propose to continue this discussion on the approperiate issues on GH.
