#19736: ghc: Library not loaded: libffi.5.dylib --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: gwright@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.7.1 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: ghc | --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by gwright@…): * status: assigned => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: r53745 should fix this. Turns out not to be a cabal problem, but one in core ghc. A private copy of libffi is built and is expected to be linked in as part of the runtime. However, the only thing which ensures that this library is used is a bit of light search path hackery. The portfile has been changed to implement the correct solution: call the private version of libffi something different (libHsLocalFfi) to prevent the name clash. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/19736#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
