Dear Charlie,

	Thanks for the prompt reply.

201}otool -L /sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/glew/glew.so
/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/glew/glew.so:
         /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/ 
OpenGL (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)
         /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,  
current version 1.0.0)
         /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,  
current version 88.1.6)

	Well, no libGLEW referenced in there. Doesn't seem right, right?
The libs got built and are there, though:

202}ltm /sw/lib/libGLEW.*
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  admin      19 Jun 29 21:37 /sw/lib/libGLEW.

lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  admin      19 Jun 29 21:37 /sw/lib/libGLEW.dylib

	Seems straightforward enough. Let's see ... Done.

	No. Same complaint.
	Let's see what glew.so looks for

117}otool -L glew.so
glew.so:
         /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,  
current version 88.1.3)

	I guess I'm not understanding how the libs are being referred to/ 
linked in.

	I've attached these.
