Forgive me if I'm committing a newbie error.
The output of libpng-config is indeed 1.6.17.
However, a directory listing of /opt/local/lib gives me this: {{{ lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 10 Apr 7 20:53 libpng.a -> libpng16.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 14 Apr 7 20:53 libpng.dylib -> libpng16.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 11 Apr 7 20:53 libpng.la -> libpng16.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 176924 Apr 7 20:53 libpng16.16.dylib -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 278128 Apr 7 20:53 libpng16.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 17 Apr 7 20:53 libpng16.dylib -> libpng16.16.dylib }}} Which looks to me like 1.6.16, but I'm now doubting my interpretation of how libraries encode their version numbers.
Library version numbers rarely coincide with project version numbers. I also have those files installed on my system with libpng 1.6.17. The real library version information is stored in the library. libpng 1.6.17 provides libpng16 compatibility version 34. The same files are also installed with libpng 1.6.16, except they are compatibility version 33. The same files are installed with libpng 1.6.15, except compatibility version 32.
However (and this is what started all this), trying to run tcpflow results in the following error:
{{{ dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libpng16.16.dylib Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib Reason: Incompatible library version: libfreetype.6.dylib requires version 34.0.0 or later, but libpng16.16.dylib provides version 32.0.0 Trace/BPT trap: 5 }}}
Compatibility version 32 was from libpng 1.6.15, so somewhere on your system you have installed a copy of libpng 1.6.15, either in addition to or on top of the 1.6.17 installed by MacPorts. Run: {{{ otool -L /opt/local/lib/libpng16.dylib }}} If this shows compatibility version 32 (or any number other than 34), then your MacPorts libpng library was overwritten somehow (did you run some other installer?) and you should deactivate and reactivate the libpng port to put it right: {{{ sudo port -f deactivate libpng sudo port activate libpng }}} If, however, `otool` shows compatibility version 34, then your MacPorts libpng is probably undamaged. In that case, I would suspect that you have set the `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable to a location where libpng 1.6.15 is installed. Have you done that? To find out, you can run: {{{ env | grep DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH }}} If this produces no output, you don't have `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` set, but if you do, it will show you what value it's set to. You might also check whether you have libpng16.16.dylib in /usr/local/lib (or anything in /usr/local, really). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47432#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
