You can avoid that by adding the library file that doesn't have a version number in it, i.e. "libz.dylib" not "libz.1.2.3.dylib". This is a symlink that always points to the current version, and it's the same file the linker would use if you added "-lz".

(Xcode used to have a bug where if you did this it would "helpfully" resolve the symlink and actually add the specific version file; but that's been fixed for years.)

Yes, that was the problem I had many years ago, so maybe my recommendation is well past its Sell-by date.

On the other hand, the advantage of the linker flags is it simplifies using the same libraries in a bunch of projects (when used in combination with xcconfig files).
