Brew Install Coreutils Failing 10.9.5 Osx

brew install coreutils failing 10.9.5 OSX

As stated in Clemens’ answer, Homebrew doesn’t support macOS 10.9. You can either:

• Try TigerBrew, a fork of Homebrew for old macOS versions

• Install coreutils from source, with something like the following:

  wget https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/coreutils/coreutils-8.25.tar.xz
  tar xJf coreutils-8.25.tar.xz
  cd coreutils-8.25/
  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
  make
  sudo make install
  

Install Ruby 2.0.0 on an old Mac OS 10.7.5 Lion

Homebrew doesn’t support macOS 10.7. You can use Tigerbrew, a fork of Homebrew "that adds support for PowerPC Macs, and Macs running Tiger or Leopard" (quoting its homepage).

How to install custom man (manual) pages on mac os x

First of all you may want to check if the man page your are trying to install is properly formatted and can be opened by man command. To do this pass the path to the man file to man command. It must contain a slash in order to be recognized as a path, for example:

man /usr/local/man/man1/custom_command.1

Then you should make sure the path you are installing your man page to is on the search list of man command. In order to find the man page its path must be either:

• specified with -M option to the man command
• set in the environmental variable MANPATH
• listed in its config file (/private/etc/man.conf on OS X) under MANPATH statement or under MANPATH_MAP statement (which applies only to locations in your PATH environmental variable)
• located in the location relative to where binary is installed, i.e.: if binary is installed in path/bin the man page is searched for in path/man, path/cat and path/bin/man, path/bin/cat
• listed in files added in /private/etc/manpaths.d/ directory

The name of the man page file must be same as command name with optional section number. It may be gzipped.

To see where man will search for your custom_command man page run

man -d custom_command

RVM: sha256sum nor shasum found

Means you're missing the binary in /usr/bin or your path is somehow missing /usr/bin. Open a new shell and run echo $PATH | grep '/usr/bin' and see if its returned. Also, ls -alh /usr/bin/shasum and make sure the binary is there and executable. There is no sha256sum on OS X, just shasum.

How would you install openconnect via nix on macOS latest?

The installation was failing because yubikey needs the PCSC framework dependency. I fixed the issue in this pull request. Since it has been merged into the nixpkgs master branch you should now be able to install openconnect on Catalina.
