Yes, it's very, very different on OS X. OS X uses "Mach-O" format rather than ELF, and spells ".so" as ".dylib", plus it reverses the order of the version number and the file type suffix: libcurl.so.4 => libcurl.4.dylib Mach-O also uses a "compatibility version" that is distinct from the version that appears in the filename. :-/ -- Chris BeHanna ch...@behanna.org _______________________________________________ Scons-dev mailing list Scons-dev@scons.org http://two.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/scons-dev
