In the X11 parts, the quality control is particularly low, but the symlink weirdness is not restricted to it (the lib*.la files are perhaps a little weirder in X11 than elsewhere). If you look into /usr/lib/, you see a colorful mixture of examples for both variants (compare /usr/lib/libiconv*dylib with /sw/lib/libiconv*dylib, for instance), plus all sorts of hand-crafted symlinks, with /usr/lib/libreadline.dylib as the famous lonely summit of madness. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
