Re: [Apbs-users] OS X Binary and libg2c.0.dylib

[Karlheinz S. <ksk...@su...>]

Todd,

Thanks for the advice on gcc/g77. I did not have it installed. I 
installed the gcc from the mac developer CD (included with OS X 10.3) 
and g77 from fink. However even after gcc/g77 installation the same 
error message on apbs invocation is returned and another search did not 
turn up libg2c.0.dylib.  I do have the files "libg2c.la" and 
"libg2c.a". Can I generate libg2c.0.dylib from these files?

A second issue which I've noticed is the path for this lib is 
/usr/local/lib/. Most of the OS X systems that I have used have had a 
/usr/lib but not a /usr/local/lib/. Could this also cause problems?
