Something seems to be mangling the library names incorrectly?

The ilmbase package contains:

libHalf-2_4.24.dylib      libIex-2_4.24.dylib       libIexMath-2_4.24.dylib   libIlmThread-2_4.24.dylib libImath-2_4.24.dylib
libHalf.dylib             libIex.dylib              libIexMath.dylib          libIlmThread.dylib        libImath.dylib
libHalf.la                libIex.la                 libIexMath.la             libIlmThread.la           libImath.la

Notice the periods.

I lack the hardware to debug this. @LnL7, any ideas?

Repro'd on 10.14

https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openexr/blob/master/INSTALL.md#configuring-via-autoconf seems to indicate that autoconf-based builds are only supported on linux - we may want to switch this to cmake. Building outside of nix via cmake is working fine for me.

[glittershark]

@eraserhd can you give https://github.com/glittershark/nixpkgs/commit/00ab0f45b7665cbc396c3d54c079664055390fc3 a try?

[flokli]

I can confirm this still builds on x86_64-linux at least.

86241 appears to fix this for me (macos 10.14). Reopen if it's still a problem for you.
