Hi,
I tried the package Inkscape-0.42+0.43pre3-1.dmg on a MacOSX machine with OSX 10.3.9 and X11 installed from the OSX Cdrom.
Sad, but it doesn't launch. When I try to use the command line, then I see that the binary is missing a dynamic library (libXinerama.1.dyn) which seems not to be included in the apple X11 distribution. Any ideas?
If you have the solution please add also a README to the *.dmg to point to this. I'm sure I'm not the only one..
thx + cu rasca
PS: same for the previous version Inkscape-0.42+0.43pre2-1.dmg
Michael: for the 0.42+0.43pre2-1 (which is the one I built I suspect) I can explain my setup: I have Apple X11+Apple X11 SDK but it appears it lacks libXinerama.1.dyn (at least on 10.3.x, I cannot remember what I did on 10.4) which I needed to compile some X11 stuff because I have a dual head display. So I installed Xfree from Fink but I wanted to keep Apple X11 because it deals better with my graphic tablet than Fink's Xfree. So I kept Apple X11 on the side, copied the Xinerama library from Fink's Xfree to Apple X11 and switched everything back to Apple X11 afterwards. Since then everything works like a charm.... but I did not suspect that this library could become a dependency of the other things I built... What is your setup? How could we prevent the dependency on libXinerama.1.dylib which Apple X11 on 10.3.9 is obviously lacking? Or should we ship this lib inside Inkscape dmg (but then the installation would be a little more complicated...)?
