uuu_mac doesn't work on ARM-based macs

Open therealcmj opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

ARM based macs can't use the included uuu_mac.

But have no fear - uuu is now available via homebrew.

Please update the docs to instruct users to install uuu via "brew install uuu". And since this works on both x86 and ARM you can remove uuu-mac from the bits entirely.

Did you try with Rosetta?

You can open a pull request to make the changes to the readme, that can then be merged by the repository owner.

Some users may not be willing to install homebrew just for one application, so having the pre-compiled version still makes sense, although adding a mac build for arm is probably a good idea.

Yes. It links to libraries that aren't installed.

Will do.

The directions already advise to install the required libraries via homebrew.

I'll update the readme and do a PR.

Done: #13
