Thanks for reporting this, we'll add the macOS latest release to the list.

It looks like it's already there, macchina is just a little bit behind libmacchina, it's only a matter of upgrading its version then.

How would we go about updating its version? I have machine installed through brew.

Unless a new version comes out, macchina will continue to report that field as it currently does. I can't say for sure when a new version will arrive.

So we cannot upgrade libmacchina on its own then?

[grtcdr]

I'm afraid not. You can, in the meantime, build the program from source to get around the issue.

Ah OK, would probably wait then. Is there no way for us to override what it says? Like a custom string in a file?

[grtcdr]

I don't know if we want to include that level of customization. macchina is, after all, supposed to automate the collection and display process. You can temporarily hide that specific readout by listing every other one and explicitly omitting it from the show list in your macchina.toml.

A recent version of macchina detects macOS correctly. I'd built this version from source.

$ macchina --version
macchina     6.2.0
libmacchina  7.2.1

macOS 14.4.1 Sonoma

As @mikemadden42 has shown, the issue was fixed upstream, it shouldn't be a problem in a future release. I'll close this issue then.
