Hi. I'm trying to play with CouchDB on my Mac (10.5.8), Erlang/OTP
R13B02 installed. I'm getting an error when I try to start couchdb,
though:
$ couchdb
dyld: Symbol not found: __cg_jpeg_resync_to_restart
Referenced from:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/
Frameworks/ImageIO.framework/Versions/A/ImageIO
Expected in: /opt/local/lib/libJPEG.dylib
Trace/BPT trap
The same error occurs with both couchdb-0.9.1 and -0.10, each compiled
from source tarball.
So, I have two questions:
1. Why does couchdb depend on libjpeg?
It doesn't, really. But the command `icu-config --invoke` ends up
prefixing /opt/local/lib to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, at which point all
those MacPorts libs start trumping the Apple defaults. It sucks, and
in trunk we don't do it anymore.
2. Is there any way to disable couchdb's dependency on libjpeg? (Or,
of course, fix the dependency in some other way, but I've had macports
churning for a while now upgrading everything, and I'm ready to be
done.)
You can safely remove the call to icu-config --invoke from the couchdb
startup script. Turns out it isn't really necessary to get the ICU
libraries linked in properly. Cheers,
Adam
