Does it work if you install the package in installation scope, instead of user scope? I think the problem is "@loader_path/libgio-2.0.0.dylib" and similar references in the ".dylib" files. That is, the "libpoppler-glib.8.dylib" library is found by `ffil-lib`, but the load fails because libraries referenced by "libpoppler-glib.8.dylib" are not found in the expected location. The "@loader_path" references mean that the shared libraries as currently compiled work only when installed in the same scope as the `racket/draw` libraries. Offhand, I don't have a good idea for solving this problem. (FWIW, Windows installations won't have this problem.) ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
