I have been keeping up with the latest versions of Elegant and SDDS and was operating fine with Elegant21 and SDDS Version June 9, 2008. Today I tried to upgrade to Elegant22 and SDDS Version June 4, 2009. Now calls to SDDS fail as I am missing one of the libraries as noted below:

dyld: Library not loaded: /sw/lib/libXm.4.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/jbm99/Documents/My Documents/Codes/Elegant22/mpl_motif
Reason: image not found
dyld: Library not loaded: /sw/lib/libXm.4.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/jbm99/Documents/My Documents/Codes/Elegant22/mpl_motif
Reason: image not found

Any quick solutions on how to obtain this library and get back in business? I poked around with Google and on the Fink website but to no avail so far. Thanx in advance for any solutions.

Try installing the fink packages: openmotif4 and openmotif4-shlibs

Dr. Soliday: Thanx for the advice on adding the motif4 libraries, that advances me a step as it added a missing library. Now it appears that an existing library I have (libpng12.0.dylib) does not satisfy the "latest version" criteria. I had tried to update this from Fink as well but I'm left with the error message below. I assume these library issues are caused by the updates done to SDDS.

dyld: Library not loaded: /sw/lib/libpng12.0.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/jbm99/Documents/My Documents/Codes/Elegant22/mpl_motif
Reason: Incompatible library version: mpl_motif requires version 36.0.0 or later, but libpng12.0.dylib provides version 30.0.0

Advice appreciated.

What version of libpng3 do you have installed?

Here is what fink says on our development machine.
libpng3 1:1.2.35-2 PNG image format handling library
libpng3-shlibs 1:1.2.35-2 Shared libraries for libpng3 package

Dr. Soliday: thank you for the pointer to libpng3. Simply installing this as follows has restored the use of SDDS tools for plotting. I can now use Elegant22 together with the June 4, 2009 version of SDDS.

Gratefully,

/sw/bin/fink install libpng3-shlibs
