I have in my .bash_profile a variable called DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH set to
ImageMagik. You mentioned a DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH. Do I need to add this?
What do I set it to? NIRT failed and it mentioned DYLD path.

Hi Sean,
I was pleased to see an updated BRLCAD version for MAC. I was also pleased that
it installed like a typical mac app. However, the install did not put any path
in the .bash_profile file that would allow me to run MGED from the terminal
command line. I attempted to put the /bin and /lib directories in the PATH
variable, but it did not seem to work. What am I missing? Any assistance would
be much appreciated.
Hi Bob, thanks for the feedback on the app. It was sort of a quick "hey, I
wonder ..." test before release to see if I could pull together a pretty
drag-n-drop release quickly. I've been loving it myself now that I can
double-click .g files and launch mged by dragging them on the app, but there
are some loose ends to be sorted out. The path is one of them.
You can add it to your path, but notice the ':' in the application name.
That's a tricky problem since you have to escape the colon. Even once you add
it to your path, though, you also end up needing to set the
DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH variable too so that it finds the runtime libraries.
All that said, the easiest solution is to create a symbolic link. First,
create or go to /usr/brlcad:
sudo mkdir -p /usr/brlcad
cd /usr/brlcad
Then create a link into the application bundle for that version:
sudo ln -s /Applications/BRL-CAD\ :\ MGED\
7.22.0.app/Contents/Resources/rel-7.22.0
Tab completion may help there in case I wrote the path wrong or you have it
located somewhere else. Once the link is created, it should all work if you
add /usr/brlcad/rel-7.22.0/bin to your PATH.
Cheers!
Sean
