| Issue: | |
| $ sudo install_name_tool -change completes without errors however running "otool -L shows that the dylib has not been changed. | |
| e.g. | |
| $ sudo install_name_tool -change ~/Download/mysql-5.5.28/libmysql/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib ~/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/mysql2-0.3.11/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle | |
| $ otool -L ~/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/mysql2-0.3.11/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle | |
| /Users/username/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/mysql2-0.3.11/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle: | |
| /Users/username/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p194/lib/libruby.1.9.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.9.1, current version 1.9.1) | |
| /Users/username/Downloads/mysql-5.5.28/libmysql/libmysqlclient.18.dylib (compatibility version 18.0.0, current version 18.0.0) | |
| /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 159.1.0) | |
| /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.5) | |
| /usr/lib/libobjc.A.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 228.0.0) | |
| Solution: | |
| Make sure to use absolute path starting with / instead of using ~/path/to/file. the following changes work as expected for the above example. | |
| $ sudo install_name_tool -change /Users/username/Downloads/mysql-5.5.28/libmysql/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /Users/username/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/mysql2-0.3.11/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle | |
| otool -L ~/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/mysql2-0.3.11/lib/mysql2/mysql2.bundle | |
