Dear fellow users

I cannot lauch Scribus. I see a splash screen but the app doesn't start.
Below is the error message:
dyld: ./scribus multiple definitions of symbol _FT_Add_Default_Modules
/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib(ftinit.lo) definition of
_FT_Add_Default_Modules
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib(ftinit.o) definition of
_FT_Add_Default_Modules
Trace/BPT trap

Could you send me the output of

  otool -L /sw/bin/scribus

please?

I have reinstalled fink and scribus but without success. I have even tried
to remove the duplicate files but without success.

I assume you built scribus from source with Fink? While you do this, you should move anything out of /usr/local/ that can interfere with compilation. In your case, you probably have not only /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (which in itself would not be harmful), but also /usr/local/include/freetype2/freetype/freetype.h, /usr/local/lib/freetype2/lib/libfreetype.dylib, and /usr/local/bin/freetype-config. In particular the latter is dangerous. The simplest is to move all of /usr/local out of the way while you are compiling Fink things:


  sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local_away
  fink rebuild scribus
  sudo mv /usr/local_away /usr/local
