[vlc-devel] VLC 2.1.0 packaging for MacOS has broken symlink to oldlibrary version

[Konrad Iturbe]

Hi.
Copy the VLC to the applications folder, because volumes/ does not allow to do this kind of things.

Hope this helps.

Just tried to compile something that depended on libvlccore on a Mac with VLC 2.1.0 --  it failed, so examining the released image I found:

ls -l  /Volumes/vlc-2.1.0/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/lib/
total 3248
-rw-r--r--@ 1 briggs  users   148272 Sep 24 15:03 libvlc.5.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 briggs  users       14 Sep 24 15:03 libvlc.dylib -> libvlc.5.dylib
-rw-r--r--@ 1 briggs  users  1500880 Sep 24 15:03 libvlccore.7.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 briggs  users       18 Sep 24 15:03 libvlccore.dylib -> libvlccore.5.dylib

Note the broken link "libvlccore.dylib -> libvlccore.5.dylib".

The VLC app itself is not affected because it binds directly to libvlccore.7.dylib.
