Hi,

I got xfree86 installed, but now I get this when I type startx:

dyld: xinit can't open library: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu.1.dylib  (No such
file or directory, errno = 2)

In another age, this used to be a common error, therefore there is even a FAQ entry on it, Fink FAQ#9.6. Since this was a long time ago, the package names in that FAQ entry might no longer correspond to what you are using now. The reason for the absence of just this library has not been established, AFAIK, but if this one is missing, there are probably others missing, too.


I have a file called libXmuu.dylib, so I did "cp libXmuu.dylib
libXmuu.1.dylib", but I still get the same err msg.

If you look at those libXmuu.*.dylibs, you should see something like this:


% ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu*b
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 14952 16 Mar 01:33 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu.1.0.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 17 28 Oct 14:43 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu.1.dylib -> libXmuu.1.0.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 17 28 Oct 14:43 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu.dylib -> libXmuu.1.0.dylib


That is, both libXmuu.dylib and libXmuu.1.dylib are not real files but symlinks, both pointing to the real file libXmuu.1.0.dylib.
