base fails to run with single-arch /usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib

[jpedro2011@…]

When I try to use ports, I got this error message:

dlopen(/opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib, 10): Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib

Referenced from: /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib Reason: no suitable image found. Did find:

/usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture /usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture

while executing

"load /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib"

("package ifneeded Pextlib 1.0" script) invoked from within

"package require Pextlib 1.0"

(file "/opt/local/bin/port" line 40)

How can I fix this?

Did you just upgrade?

When I upgrade OSX to 10.6.6, i've got this trouble. In every command with port I got this message. (ex. sudo port selfupdate).

I tried to reinstall Xcode and macports version, but nothing. MacPorts-1.9.2-10.6-SnowLeopard.dmg (the version of macports on my mac)

What does:

file /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib say?

What does:

file /usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib say?

1º question: /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64 /opt/local/share/macports/Tcl/pextlib1.0/Pextlib.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

2º question: /usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

On my machine:

% file /usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib
/usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 3 architectures
/usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib (for architecture x86_64):	Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64
/usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib (for architecture i386):	Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386
/usr/lib/libedit.2.dylib (for architecture ppc7400):	Mach-O dynamically linked shared library ppc

So you need to get back the universal libedit that ships with the OS.

Sorry but how can I do it?

You probably need to reinstall Mac OS X from your OS install media. The libedit.2.dylib file you have doesn't appear to be the same one that ships with Mac OS X.

Ok I will do this. Thanks for the support

I used mac osx combo update and it works.
