Justin, I saw your commit into homebrew and I am actually trying that. Like I said, statically linking it to a test C program I wrote worked fine, but working over FFI and dynamically loading it failed with the quoted error message. I'm unsure how to proceed at this point. :) Thanks a lot for the homebrew recipe, saved me some work there. Best, Mitchell On Fri, Oct 8, 2010 at 12:35 AM, Justin Clift <jclift@redhat.com> wrote:

I'm using the Ruby/FFI libvirt library and getting this consistently on Mac OS X:

Trace/BPT trap
I exported DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES and it shows that libvirt.dylib is loaded in the process space, but the above still occurs. When I statically link into a C program it works fine, however. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
If this doesn't get a response, I'll post it to the dev list, since its perhaps relevant to them as well.
Hi Mitchell,
Which build of libvirt do you have on the OSX box?
Asking because some work has been happening recently to get libvirt into the Homebrew packaging (on OSX).
The version added yesterday (0.8.4-6) is the latest one, so I'm thinking it might be worth trying that if you're using an older version?
Regards and best wishes,
