DYLD errors Using 1.20.2 with Xcode

[Nirbheek Chauhan]

Hi Patrick,

You are missing the following link argument: -Wl,-rpath,<path_to_libdir>

This is handled for you automatically if you're using pkg-config, but
with XCode you need to add it by hand. See also:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/2218

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/cerbero/-/merge_requests/848

If there's a way to do this automatically for frameworks too, please
let us know. As far as I know, there's no way to have XCode
automatically pick up a list of linker arguments that should be used
when linking to a framework.

Cheers,
Nirbheek
