Node crashes in OS X mavericks - dyld symbol not found _xmlBufContent

[Alberto Ricart]

I upgraded my machine to OS X Mavericks last night, and to my surprise, node crashes. Reinstalling node does not fix the issue.

$ node -v

dyld: Symbol not found: _xmlBufContent

  Referenced from: /usr/lib/libxslt.1.dylib

  Expected in: /Volumes/TIBCO/FTL/ftl_accesspoint/install/lib/libxml2.2.dylib

 in /usr/lib/libxslt.1.dylib

hrm... mine is working.

% node -v   
v0.10.13

It looks like your Node executables tried to access libxml from /Volumes/TIBCO. I get the feeling that that is wrong, and that Node should load libxml from /usr/lib instead. Can you try unmounting /Volumes/TIBCO? Does that help?

[Nathan Rajlich]

Why would the node executable depend on libxml?

Maybe it links indirectly to libxml. The Node executable is linked to
Foundation, ApplicationServices, CoreServices, etc. One of those
libraries probably need libxml.

You’ve set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, haven’t you? Don’t do that; it causes problems.

FYI nodejs works fine on Mavericks when compiled using MacPorts, and it doesn’t link with libxml2 or libxslt.

[Rafał Janicki]

My works fine too (I've got Mavericks since yesterday evening)

$ node -v

v0.10.21

Installed via brew.
