A python library that I'm using uses libxml2.2.dylib. I'm getting this error message:
Reason:
Incompatible library version: etree.so requires version 12.0.0 or later, but libxml2.2.dylib provides version 10.0.0
My system's version of libxml2.2.dylib
is older and is in /usr/lib/
. I downloaded the newest version of libxml2.2.dylib using homebrew, and that is in /usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.9.1/lib/
.
I would like my Python application to use that version instead of the one the system uses.
Is this a matter of adding the homebrew folder to the path?

libxml2
orlibxslt
it is linked against.It could boil down to
