I wonder if the validation-message is the problem. Notice that it first says that the target is "exttosim.dylib 0.0.0", but then later says that the Shlibs entry is "/sw/lib/magic/tcl/exttosim.dylib". Could you verify that the first line of the output of 'otool -L' on that file is indeed just "exttosim.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0)", i.e., the simple filename rather than the full path? The Shlibs field is required to contain the install_name (what the file calls itself according to otool -L). OTOH, that looks a lot like an upstream bug in the package too (similar to what dbreiser saw a week or so ago), where a library has a "simple filename" install_name instead of the full path to it. dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
