I agree with the "keep reinstalling until the file appears" advice. But on 10.4, /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.dylib, which is a symlink to libGL.1.2.dylib, is in fact (and contrary to any logic, but the separation of X11SDK.pkg from X11User.pkg was never dictated by logic) installed by X11User.pkg, not by X11SDK.pkg. And it is again touched by X11Update2006. The latter update has occasionally been reported to remove all the dylib symlinks it is supposed to install. But from Joao's ls -l output, I see that his date stamp on libGL.1.2.dylib is prior to X11Update2006, so the latter is not likely to be guilty there. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
