OSX: GNU getopt

Open ax3l opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

On OSX one needs the GNU getopt to let pic-create and pic-build work.

We somehow have to abstract this properly: https://stackoverflow.com/a/37485578/2719194

brew install gnu-getopt
pic-create, pic-configure: getopt -> /usr/local/Cellar/gnu-getopt/1.1.6/bin/getopt (or PATH to /usr/local/Cellar/gnu-getopt/1.1.6/bin/ in picongpu.profile)

Solvable via spack packaging when depending on util-linux: http://frodo.looijaard.name/project/getopt

This is still an issue. I ran into issues using picmi -> pic-create on OS X today.
