OpenNI2: Kinect not detected when trying with SimpleViewer sample

Trying to use OpenNI2 for a project, but can’t even seem to get past the first obsctaces. I have cloned the develop branch and built with make. That worked without issues. I am on Mac OS.

Trying to launch the SimpleViewer sample.

git:(develop): /Users/flo/tmp/OpenNI2/Bin/x64-Release/SimpleViewer
dyld: Library not loaded: libOpenNI2.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/flo/tmp/OpenNI2/Bin/x64-Release/SimpleViewer
  Reason: image not found
[1]    11509 trace trap  /Users/flo/tmp/OpenNI2/Bin/x64-Release/SimpleViewer

Apparently I have to link to the compiled library location, I am doing by prepending the library path as follows:

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/flo/tmp/OpenNI2/Bin/x64-Release/ /Users/flo/tmp/OpenNI2/Bin/x64-Release/SimpleViewer

This still fails because it doesn’t seem to recognize the connected Kinect (v1).

After initialization:

SimpleViewer: Device open failed:
    DeviceOpen using default: no devices found

The Kinect is connected however. I can confirm this because it is registered as a usb device. Out of ioreg -p IOUSB contains:

Anything I am missing or doing wrong?
