I downloaded a nightly build and it won't run because it can't find the libraries.

% ./bin/vlc
dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libvlc.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/elliott/Downloads/vlc-macos-sdk-4.0.0-dev-70dc21e2/./bin/vlc
  Reason: image not found
zsh: abort      ./bin/vlc

With otool I see the @rpath uses two forward slashes. I'm not familiar with this syntax. How do I make it find the libraries in a relative path? The lib folder is located next to the bin folder.

Code: Select all

          cmd LC_RPATH
      cmdsize 24
         path //lib (offset 12)
         Load command 21

The SDK file you downloaded is mainly intented for developers to integrate libvlc into own applications.

Please use the file with the ending dmg instead, if you want to run VLC.
