trouble linking libraries ld: library not found for -lcuda

Hello,

I have a program that compiles and runs just fine on linux but breaks with the following error on my Mac

ld: library not found for -lcuda
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [read_lib] Error 1

The last step in my Makefile is here:
gcc -o read_lib read_lib.cu.o read_and_store_library.o n_queries_mgf.o read_and_store_query.o bin_queries.o bin_library.o -L /usr/local/cuda/lib/ -lcuda -lcudart

I have added /usr/local/cuda/lib to my PATH and I have verified that the libraries are located at that path. Any tips on how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

In another post someone said that you should make sure the permission on the /usr/local/cuda/lib folder are correct, I see here that libcuda is different but I don’t understand what I need to change…
