libesd.0.dylib missing

i downloaded and installed mpg123, and everything went normally until i ran the program. i get the message:

"dyld: mpg123 can't open library: /usr/local/lib/libesd.0.dylib (No such file or directory, errno = 2)"

i can't find libesd.0.dylib anywhere on my system. should the installer have included this file? i'm running Mac OS X 10.0.4 with the developer tools installed.

Same happened to me.

I got same error when trying to run gvim. Anyone have information about this library?

I solved it by installing one of apex's library packages:
<A HREF="http://macosx.forked.net/ports/libdl.pkg.tgz" TARGET=_blank>http://macosx.forked.net/ports/libdl.pkg.tgz</A>

I installed a whole bunch of library packages (audiofile-0.2.1.pkg, glib-1.2.10.pkg, libdl.pkg, ncurses-5.2.pkg) But it's still a no-go (libesd missing).
Maybe someone who actually has it, could upload it to the file sharing area of his iDisk and tell us where to get it...

TIA

Ok, I did it. I installed a whole bunch of libraries and finally had libesd too.
I stuffed it into a sit file which you can get at my <A HREF="http://homepage.mac.com/knubbel/FileSharing1.html" TARGET=_blank>my iDisk</A>!

Isn't there a package manager for darwin that checks for dependencies? I looked for that lib on another box and found:

I don't know if this helps though.

The latest version of mpg123 requires eSound <A HREF="http://macosx.forked.net/ports/esound-0.2.22.pkg.tgz" TARGET=_blank>http://macosx.forked.net/ports/esound-0.2.22.pkg.tgz</A> . Or you can use the old version without needing eSound: <A HREF="http://macosx.forked.net/ports/mpg123-0.59r.pkg.tgz" TARGET=_blank>http://macosx.forked.net/ports/mpg123-0.59r.pkg.tgz</A> .

Sure, there are actually several. <A HREF="http://fink.sourceforge.net/" TARGET=_blank>Fink</A> uses dpkg and other Debian tools plus a new build engine. <A HREF="http://gnu-darwin.sourceforge.net/" TARGET=_blank>GNU-Darwin</A> uses the FreeBSD ports collection and associated tools. Even RPM has been ported, see <A HREF="http://www-jlc.kek.jp/~fujiik/macosx/10.0.X/" TARGET=_blank>this site</A> among others.
