libfreetype.6.dylib cannot be called rightly using command-line on Mac

[qiuzhu]

I call the pdflatex in commad-line on Mac and then output error:

dyld: Library not loaded: @executable_path/../lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
  Referenced from: /Applications/MiKTeX Console.app/Contents/lib/libMiKTeX209-poppler.1.25.106.dylib
  Reason: Incompatible library version: libMiKTeX209-poppler.1.dylib requires version 23.0.0 or later, but libfreetype.6.dylib provides version 15.0.0
[1]    27786 abort      pdflatex

and I use locate command to find all libfreetype.6.dyli files:

/Applications/MiKTeX Console.app/Contents/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
/Applications/texstudio.app/Contents/Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib
/opt/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
/usr/local/Cellar/freetype/2.9/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib

and check the version:

otool -L /usr/local/Cellar/freetype/2.9/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib

> /usr/local/Cellar/freetype/2.9/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib:
> 	/usr/local/opt/freetype/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 23.0.0, current version 23.0.0)

otool -L /opt/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib

> /opt/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib:
> 	/opt/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 19.0.0, current version 19.6.0)

and

 otool -L /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib:
	/usr/local/opt/freetype/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 23.0.0, current version 23.0.0)

it works with IDE like texstudio , but only occurs in comand-line , I dont know why miktex call otherlibfreetype.6.dylib

Obviously this is a system-dependent issue (I cannot reproduce it at the moment).

Please check the versions of /Applications/MiKTeX Console.app/Contents/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib and /Applications/texstudio.app/Contents/Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib.

otool -L /Applications/texstudio.app/Contents/Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib
/Applications/texstudio.app/Contents/Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib:
	@executable_path/../Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 17.0.0, current version 17.0.0)

and

otool -L /Applications/MiKTeX\ Console.app/Contents/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
/Applications/MiKTeX Console.app/Contents/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib:
	@executable_path/../lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 23.0.0, current version 23.0.0)

Thank you. But I wonder where version 15.0.0 is coming from.

In order to find out what libraries are loaded by miktex-pdftex, you can run:

otool -L /Applications/MiKTeX\ Console.app/Contents/bin/miktex-pdftex

this is the output:

This has been fixed with MiKTeX 2.9.6650.
