...note that you always get shared libs, which means you would need to include it in the distribution, or explicitly specify linking to the static lib (which is usually also built)...I always do this in the ftgl archive, so that ftgl can be build statically, and therefore is portable (no probs so far)...
for better checking, i repeat my question: how do i check the dynamic linkage dependencies of a binary on osx?
otool -L name.dylib will show dependent libs, or "otool -L libftgl.a" will show object files included...
That's already handled by the Pd-extended build system. Once the build is done, it automatically finds all the needed dylibs and includes them from Fink.
i still think that it will be easiest to provide the binaries for freetype2 and ftgl in the GemLibs-OSX-10.4.tgz
...I agree: we really just need a correctly built libftgl.a in GemLibs/libs...but I'm
Like I said before, checking in binaries is a really bad idea. If the code is "done", it should be simple to automate the building. This will lead to less work in the long run.
sick with some unknown (yet) swelling of the lymph nodes in my neck, and can't do much...
Get well soon!
