Does that file exist, are its permissions ok and is it of the correct architecture for your computer? Try:
file /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib
and see what it says. Try also:
otool -L /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib
Thank you very much for your help.
The first says
/opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib: unreadable symlink `/opt/ local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib' (No such file or directory)
The second
otool: can't map file: /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib ((os/ kern) invalid argument)
Sorry I'm sorta new to the Unix environment. Is the sym link break what's causing this? If so how do I fix it?
So it looks like /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib exists but is merely a symlink pointing to something that doesn't exist. That would certainly explain why ld couldn't access it, and why your compile didn't complete.
One good piece of information would be to know where the symlink is pointing:
ls -l /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib
Another would be which port provided that broken symlink:
port provides /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib
Whatever port it identifies, try reinstalling it (sudo port -ncuf upgrade theportname) -- after selfupdating to make sure you have the latest MacPorts and ports tree (sudo port selfupdate). If, after reinstalling the latest version of that port, you still have a broken symlink, you may need to contact the port's maintainer (port info theportname).
Ok so here's the first joshuamacfie$ ls -l /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 0 Jul 9 04:20 /opt/local/lib/libgtk- x11-2.0.dylib -> Does this mean it pints to itself? and the second joshuamacfie$ port provides /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib is a directory. Does not give me a port name just says its a directory. Or should I try to reinstall libgtk-x11-2.0.dylib
