Building librsvg with libffi.7.dylib works

[Liontooth (David Liontooth)]

I get this when I try to build librsvg-2.50.3_0:

:info:build dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libffi.6.dylib

However, my installation has /opt/local/lib/libffi.7.dylib and symlinking to it works -- that is to say, the build completes without complaints.

David, we would need at least a main.log to have any hope of helping you out here.

But the likely issue is that libffi was updated to a new version and things linked against the old version have to be rebuilt to pick up the new libffi version. Exactly what needs to be rebuilt is not clear from the bit you've posted, but it's not librsvg itself (see below).

Please reopen this ticket if you still have this problem, and you can add a main log.
