[petsc-users] dyld[19098]: Library not loaded: @rpath/libHYPRE-2.32.0.dylib

[David Andrs]

Hi Juan,

I recently bumped into a similar issue (not with PETSc). It is a general
issue with the newest macOS where a duplicate rpath prevents you from
running the binary. The info is buried in the error message when you run
the binary. I saw people "fixing" the issue by downgrading Xcode to 16.2 -
if my memory serves well. Also you can inspect your binary via `otool -l`
to check for the duplicate entries and remove them via install_name_tool
(not a solution, but a diagnosing step). So, maybe check if this is the
problem you are running into.

Side note: conda environment has the same problem and users are advised to
update to the latest ld64 (from conda-forge).

With regards,
