Just downloaded the latest release and ran ./dlite init

I'm getting this as well, going back to beta8 the problem went away again

[synic]

Yeah, running beta9 fixed the missing plist, but would not work. If I ran beta9 to get the network settings in place, I am then able to run beta8.

Same problem for me

Can confirm aswell. OSX 10.11.6, fish shell

Are all of you on OSX 10.11? I did run this build on 10.12 with an updated qcow tool, I'm wondering if the updated dependency isn't as friendly about cross-version compiling..

[synic]

I am on 10.12.2 :( I guess that must not be it.

[nlf]

huh, very strange. if you run ~/.dlite/bin/qcow-tool create --size=1GiB test.qcow in a terminal, does it work correctly? note that will create a file named test.qcow in whatever directory you're in that you'll want to delete, it's small though.

[synic]

This is what I get (on beta 9, it works fine on beta 8):

$ ~/.dlite/bin/qcow-tool create --size=1GiB test.qcow
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/libev/lib/libev.4.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/synic/.dlite/bin/qcow-tool
  Reason: image not found
[1]    12055 abort      ~/.dlite/bin/qcow-tool create --size=1GiB test.qcow

Here's some more information:

$ ls -lh /usr/local/opt/libev/lib/libev.4.dylib
gls: cannot access '/usr/local/opt/libev/lib/libev.4.dylib': No such file or directory

Issuing brew install libev totally fixes it. Should this be compiled statically?

[nlf]

bingo! that's exactly the info I was looking for! I'll see what I can figure out

[Snipon]

Installed libev with brew, works like a charm now.

Thanks @Snipon, that did it.
