Describe the bug

When trying to use gdal functions, with the gdal 3.1.2, I get this issue.

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/armadillo/lib/libarmadillo.9.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/local/opt/osgeo-gdal/lib/libgdal.27.dylib
  Reason: image not found

Also experiencing the same issues as OP.

When I check the links of the osgeo-gdal formula (brew linkage osgeo/osgeo4mac/osgeo-gdal), I get the following broken dependencies:

Broken dependencies:
  /usr/local/opt/armadillo/lib/libarmadillo.9.dylib (armadillo)

Looks like armadillo pushed out version 10.11 over the weekend which caused this formula to break.

If anyone could explain how to circumvent this issue for the time being, I'd greatly appreciate it. Also happy to help resolve the issue, but will need some hand holding as I am very new to homebrew.

In general, building the formula from source would workaround this kind of issue.

brew install osgeo-gdal `--build-from-source

Some formulas need to be updated in the repository to avoid this.

Unfortunately building from source errors for me and I am stuck with a broken GDAL installation.

Is there a fix coming in soon or do I need to switch to gdal for the moment?

Curios: Shouldn't the CI notice such issues in some way?

[alazarolop]

I'm sorry for that. I'm currently involved in a move and taking up a new position, so I think I won't be able to fix it in a short time. I would suggest using the core formulas instead as for now.

In this regard, now that gdal and proj from core are up-to-date, I have been considering to use them within the repo, while keeping the capabilities. For example, building the GDAL extensions as a complement to the core formula. I need to spend some time on it though.

Sounds good 👍 Thanks for the quick reply.

It is also possible to fix GDAL via symlinking the new armadillo:

ln -s /usr/local/opt/armadillo/lib/libarmadillo.10.dylib /usr/local/opt/armadillo/lib/libarmadillo.9.dylib
