Projektgeschichte

The official git history begins on 2014-05-29 under the macdylibbundler repository. Tagged releases visible from the official repository include 0.4.5-release in 2019, 1.0.0 in 2021, and 1.0.5 in 2022.

Adoptionsgeschichte

The README documents source builds with make plus MacPorts and Homebrew installation. The batch input likewise lists Homebrew and MacPorts, matching its niche as a macOS packaging/deployment helper for developers who ship application bundles.

Wie es verwendet wird

Users point dylibbundler at an executable or plugin with -x, ask it to bundle dependencies with -b, choose a destination directory with -d, and set the runtime install path with -p. The tool walks otool -L dependencies, copies libraries, changes install names, and prepares the executable and bundled libraries for distribution.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

dylibbundler is useful package-nerd plumbing for the awkward boundary between Unix-style shared libraries and macOS .app bundles. It automates a task that otherwise requires many install_name_tool and copy operations, especially for ports of Linux or other Unix software to macOS.
