macOS bug

[andreped]

Just tried installing FP and testing it on a new macOS with Intel CPU, and for whatever reason it failed.

The machine did not have homebrew or anything like that. Hence, I set that up, but after following this instruction for installation. I got the following below:

dyld[68800]: Library not loaded: '/usr/local/opt/jpeg/lib/libjpeg.9.dylib'
Referenced from: '/Users/sigridberg/Downloads/fastpathology_macos10.13_1.0.1/lib/libFAST.4.4.0.dylib'
Reason: tried: '/usr/local/opt/jpeg/lib/libjpeg.9.dylib' (no such file), '/usr/local/lib/libjpeg.9.dylib' (no such file), '/usr/lib/libjpeg.9.dylib' (no such file)

If I tried to install libjpeg myself through brew install libjpeg FP launches, but when trying to load a simple WSI it fails and complains about mismatch in libjpeg version and what FP/FAST expects.

Have anyone observed the same?

Homebrew sometimes updates packages. Then you will get a mismatch between the library it was compiled with and the library downloaded by the user. Homebrew allows installing a specific version, but they don't seem to always keep previous versions lying around. The best fix for this is to bundle all libraries needed with the installer,

Aaah, that makes sense. Yeah, then the best solution would be to bundle all deps with the installer.

I have already made a separate issue on that: #51

I can make an attempt on the installer later today or during the weekend.
