| It’s a “thing” on OSX. I run the attached script which fixes things up. Sadly it has to be run after each build.
I know Jon has the same issue, but I haven’t heard about it from Ian. Perhaps he has a better solution….
Cheers, Jeff.

I now tried deleting the old system-wide /Applications/KiCad, and nowwhen clicking the gerbview button in project manager it gives the sameerror about not finding _gerbview.kifaceOn Wed, Aug 19, 2020 at 11:25 AM Jonatan Liljedahl <li...@kymatica.com> wrote:
Hi! I'm having difficulties launching gerbview from my local build.
I'm opening kicad.app like this, while standing in the build directory
(/Users/lijon/Coding/kicad/build/master)
open kicad/kicad.app
...which works fine. However, clicking the gerbview button in the
project manager launches an old gerbview installed in systemwide
/Applications/KiCad/
Trying to open it manually by
open gerbview/gerbview.app
fails with "Failed to load kiface library
“/Users/lijon/Coding/kicad/build/Contents/PlugIns/_gerbview.kiface”
and then crashes.
Same with:
./gerbview/gerbview.app/Contents/MacOS/gerbview
except now it tries to look in
/Users/lijon/Coding/kicad/build/master/Contents/PlugIns/
I've also tried to stand in the kicad.app directory and open it from
there, but with similar results.
Any ideas how to run a locally built gerbview on macOS?
Cheers
