dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libpng16.16.dylib with anything php related

Question

Using any php application results in:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libpng15.15.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/php
Reason: image not found
         


        

Answer 1

I solved this by copying it over to the missing directory:

cp /opt/X11/lib/libpng15.15.dylib /usr/local/lib/libpng15.15.dylib

brew reinstall libpng kept installing libpng16, not libpng15 so I was forced to do the above.
