And from Peter O'Gorman:
"Gnucash has a whole bunch of libraries that are also loadable
modules
and is one of the reasons that dlcompat got written all those
years ago.
Gnucash-1.8 and 1.9 may differ in this regard though, I do not know.
1.8 always uses libltdl or guile to load modules, and guile always
uses
it's own libltdl, libltdl has a hard-coded-at-compile-time idea of
what
the loadable module extension is, and depending on the libtool
version,
that will either be .so or .dylib on darwin. This should not
matter if
the .la files are kept around though, as the .la file has the
dlopenable
name in it.
gnucash-1.9 probably still uses libltdl to open modules, doesn't it?"
This module is loaded using gmodule. I don't know if gmodule uses
libltdl.
But that is a bit strange, because I do have the .la file around.
And what does it contain for dlname= ?
# The name that we can dlopen(3).
dlname='libgnc-backend-file.dylib'
