Installation on a macOS Catalina 10.15.7

Does this package support the macOS operating system?

I have tried running configure and/or autogen, both result in the following:

checking for mawk... no checking for nawk... no checking for awk... awk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether make supports the include directive... yes (GNU style) checking whether make supports nested variables... yes checking whether UID '502' is supported by ustar format... yes checking whether GID '20' is supported by ustar format... yes checking how to create a ustar tar archive... gnutar checking dependency style of gcc... gcc3 checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... yes checking whether make supports nested variables... (cached) yes checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... no checking for gcc... (cached) gcc checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... (cached) yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... (cached) yes checking for gcc option to accept ISO C89... (cached) none needed checking whether gcc understands -c and -o together... (cached) yes checking sys/capability.h usability... no checking sys/capability.h presence... no checking for sys/capability.h... no configure: error: *** POSIX caps headers not found

I have not been able to find a work around for this issue yet.

Things I have tried:

I have tried both ./configure and ./autogen.sh

I have tired setting the CPATH variable.

I have install xcode-select --install

sudo ln -s /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/* /usr/local/include

Any help would be appreciated.

No. It uses Linux namespaces, which are specific to the Linux kernel.

I don't know much about either of the tools, and arrived here somewhat accidentally, but apparently there's something called sandbox-exec on OSX, which may have at least some features in common with bubblewrap, I presume.
