Hello,
I'm trying to figure out why the "xchat-python" package doesn't work
under Mac OS X (Darwin). When "xchat" comes up it prints this
error message:
AutoLoad failed for: /usr/pkg/lib/xchat/plugins/python.so
dlopen(/usr/pkg/lib/xchat/plugins/python.so, 10): Symbol not found: _xchat_find_context
Referenced from: /usr/pkg/lib/xchat/plugins/python.so
Expected in: flat namespace
The symbol "_xchat_find_context" is defined in the "xchat" binary but
it is not found when the plugin is loaded. The code loading the
plugin looks like this:
handle = dlopen (filename, RTLD_GLOBAL | RTLD_NOW);
Does anybody have an idea what goes wrong here?
Kind regards
