Hello all,
I'm trying to install the latest SWI-Prolog (see
http://www.swi-prolog.org/). On a Mac, it uses X11 for its graphics.
Everything works fine on my PowerPC Mac, but when I try to run
SWI-Prolog after installing on my Intel Mac I get an error message:
Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libXft.2.dylib
Why does it look in /opt/local/lib? Did you set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable? *Don't do this*. If you feel compelled to do it,
use DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH instead.
It seems that the directory /usr/X11R6/lib has libXft on the PowerPC
Mac, but not on the Intel Mac. Yet both machines are running OS10.4 and
X11 1.1.3.
Has libXft been accidentally omitted from Apple's Intel X11
distribution? Is there a fix?
It has not been omitted, at least not in the X11 installed here on my
Intel machine. Sometimes, however, the Apple installer forgets to
install random files. Reinstalling usually helps then.
