Hi Rich, I've found out that Panther's SNMP dylib's "compatibility version" is 6.0.0 and on Tiger it is 8.0.0, this is different than the actual source-code version. Leopard comes with the same compatibility version as Tiger as well as the latest SNMP libraries (they sit side by side). Since my Bundle was linked with the Tiger SNMP library, even though it has the same file name on Panther, it wouldn't load the library on Panther because the compatibility version of Tiger's SNMP library was greater. So, I linked with Panther's library instead, and did a little version detection to make some adjustments in my parameters to the API, and it worked, but the Panther library is PPC only (I had to remove i386 as a target architecture for it to link at all) and so my Bundle wouldn't work on Intel. So, I created a new Xcode project; a fake dylib called libnetsnmp.5.dylib (the same name as the actual version), and it contained dummy entries for all the APIs I called from the real library. I compiled this fake library for both Intel and PPC, and made the "compatibility version" 6.0.0 so it would load on Panther and Tiger. When I linked this against my Bundle it would resolve all the external links OK against this so-called "libnetsnmp.5.dylib", not knowing that this wasn't the actual library it is going to be using. My Bundle now also contained information that it requires the SNMP library with a compatibility version of 6.0.0 or greater. Keeping my version detection in play, I could now distribute my Bundle across Panther, Tiger and Leopard and it worked perfectly on both PPC and Intel, and I don't need to statically link against any libraries, or distribute a static version of the library either! Huzzah! It's a Mickey Mouse way to do things but it works. I never like doing version detection.
