Hi, folks:

I just installed brownie on an Intel mac running OS 10.6.8 using the installer.  However, the executable chokes, with the following error:

dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libgsl.0.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/bin/brownie
  Reason: no suitable image found.  Did find:
    /usr/local/lib/libgsl.0.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture
Trace/BPT trap

After (apparently) successfully compiling and installing GSL, I downloaded the brownie source and attempted to compile using make, but the compile failed due to a library problem:

ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Brownie] Error 1

Any help appreciated.

Regards,
Keith

You may need to modify the makefile to point to a particular library. Which functions are you using Brownie for? If it's the Brownian rate part, the R implementations (phytools' brownie.lite and OUwie's functions) can be more stable to use (and work cross platform). OUwie's allows you to do OU things as well. If it's the species delimitation part, there's no easy replacement for Brownie; if so, I'll try recompiling the binary on a machine running 10.6 and send it to you.

Best,
Brian

Brian:

Thanks for the tip.  I was wanting to use the Brownian model portion, so it's good to know I can use phytools if necessary.

However, I downloaded the installer from the Google Code site (http://code.google.com/p/brownie/downloads/detail?name=BrownieV2_1_2.dmg&can=2&q=), and that version works fine.  The first one I downloaded was the direct link from the Brownie site (http://brownie.googlecode.com/files/BrownieInstaller2p1.dmg)--maybe this link needs updated?

Thanks again,
Keith

Thanks, Keith. I have changed the page so people go to the Google Code site only for binaries.

Best,
Brian
