Such information absolutely needs to go to the bug-tracker or it will
most likely be forgotten. However this looks very similar to bug
#331677 so you may not have to open a new bug-report for it.

[Gimp-developer] Fwd: build problem related to libtool?

[Axel Wernicke]

Hi list,

there is a problem with building GIMP on OS X since version 2.3.6  
(2.3.5 still worked well). At the first look it seemed to be related  
to libtool, so I had a conversation with them. Peter gave me then  
some information that might help some enlighted gimp dev to wipe the  
problem out:

I think they want to check for gnu binutils to use -rpath

Ick!


To make an app relocatable on Mac OS X, you have to do more work  
than this.

You need to link your libraries with an install_name (soname) of
@executable_path/../lib/libfoo.dylib, by far the easiest thing to  
do to make
apps relocatable is to build as normal with -Wl,- 
headerpad_max_install_names
~ in LDFLAGS, then you can fix things to have the @executable_path/  
bit after

build using install_name_tool(1).

Not libtool's fault, sorry, now you've got to go back to the gimp  
developers.


Peter


btw. there is a complete build log at http://wernicke-online.net/temp/ 
gimp2.3.7_build.log


hope that helps!

I'd really like to see GIMP running on OS X in the dev version.
