notmuch @0.16: libnotmuch.dylib has wrong install_name

[anupamsg@…]

Hi,

The latest upgrade for notmuch (@0.16, SVN revision: 108886) builds correctly, but is failing on invocation of the main binary (notmuch) with the following error:

% notmuch --version
  dyld: Library not loaded: libnotmuch.3.dylib
  Referenced from: /opt/local/bin/notmuch
  Reason: image not found

Reverting back to prior version (@0.15.2_0) works correctly. It is possible to make notmuch run with a manual soft-link to the libnotmuch.3.dylib as:

% cd /usr/lib
% sudo ln -s /opt/local/lib/libnotmuch.3.0.0.dylib libnotmuch.3.dylib

In which case, the program does run.

In other words, the library's install_name is wrong.

In r108886 you removed the patchfile patch-lib-Makefile.local.diff which had previously been fixing this problem. The patch should be brought back.

I also don't think the file patch-bindings-python-notmuch-globals.py.diff should have been removed in r108886; it looks pretty important too for letting the python bindings find the library.

Fix the problem by first reinstating the old patches, and then patching with the attached patch:

svn cp https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/mail/notmuch/files/patch-bindings-python-notmuch-globals.py.diff@108885 https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/mail/notmuch/files/patch-lib-Makefile.local.diff@108885 $(port dir notmuch)/files
patch -p0 -d $(port dir notmuch) < ~/Downloads/notmuch.diff

The patch also adjusts the description so that the quotes around "Not much mail" actually show up in the long description, and switches to using smart quotes for good measure.
