Hah! I didn’t even notice that. It’s pretty funny. The *file system* is by default case-preserving, meaning that you can create either macOS or MacOS but not both; preserving means that it will keep whichever one you create first. The shell is too, though Bash completion is case-sensitive. Apparently dlopen is case-sensitive too: when we call `dlopen(/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/macOS/lib/gnucash/libgncmod-backend-dbi.dylib, 0x0009)` it fails to find the file. You can see this yourself by running /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/macOS/gnucash-cli --debug —logto=stdout -Q info It’s in the first line of output.
I’m going to file a bug with Apple on that if it’s still true when the first macOS 15 developer beta comes out in 3 weeks. Maybe they’ll fix it.
