# On macOS, binaries refer to dynamic library dependencies using # either relative paths (e.g. "libicudata.dylib", searched relative to # $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH) or absolute paths # (e.g. "/nix/store/.../lib/libicudata.dylib"). In Nix, the latter is # preferred since it allows programs to just work. When linking # against a library (e.g. "-licudata"), the linker uses the install # name embedded in the dylib (which can be shown using "otool -D"). # Most packages create dylibs with absolute install names, but some do # not. This setup hook fixes dylibs by setting their install names to # their absolute path (using "install_name_tool -id"). It also # rewrites references in other dylibs to absolute paths. fixupOutputHooks+=('fixDarwinDylibNamesIn $prefix') fixDarwinDylibNames() { local flags=() local old_id for fn in "$@"; do flags+=(-change "$(basename "$fn")" "$fn") done for fn in "$@"; do if [ -L "$fn" ]; then continue; fi echo "$fn: fixing dylib" int_out=$(install_name_tool -id "$fn" "${flags[@]}" "$fn" 2>&1) result=$? if [ "$result" -ne 0 ] && ! grep "shared library stub file and can't be changed" <<< "$out" then echo "$int_out" >&2 exit "$result" fi done } fixDarwinDylibNamesIn() { local dir="$1" fixDarwinDylibNames $(find "$dir" -name "*.dylib") }
