As Jim is on macOS there is no ldd. The command to use is otool -L /usr/local/lib//libcairo.dylib Seeing that Jim uses homebrew to install Cairo it is worth mentioning that brew install … also generates (normally) an entry in /usr/local/lib . That is why I always stick to using /usr/local/lib/libxyz.dylib paths when I want to ensure a particular library to be loaded. Best, Frank
