The application 'lux' is missing error when installing on MacOS
I am trying to follow the install process for ‘Obscure platforms’ as per attached install instructions.
Obscure platforms
On "obscure platforms" which have Erlang/OTP but lacks
autotools, make etc. it is still possible to build with
bin/lux --make
for example on OS X 10.11.6:
JOHOWEN-M-73DD:lux-master johowen$ bin/lux --make

Try to put this in your shell's rc file and source it.
export ERL_LIBS=/usr/local/lux/lib
The problem with that is that you will use the Erlang/OTP installed at /usr/local/lib/erlang and not the one that is bundled with lux. They may possibly be incompatible.
Hopefully the problem will go away when this pull request makes it into the Erlang/OTP release:
https://github.com/erlang/otp/pull/1293
But for the time being you can use Lloyds suggestion as a workaround.
I saw now that there are multiple issues with "lux --make".
Do you have a real need of using it?

Hi Hakan and Lloyd,
Thanks for the response. I tried a few things but could not get it installed. In the end I took a tar of a colleague’s directory. He had had challenges making it too.
When I get a moment I will try your suggestions.
Regards, Jeremy

Hi Hakan,
I understand that to use configure I needed to run autoconf to create the configure script. I did not have autoconf on the mac.
Regards, Jeremy
From INSTALL.md:
If you have cloned the source from github.com and want to build the
tool using configure and make there is no configure script. Then
you need to create it with
autoconf

Why did you run "lux --make" instead of "configure" and "make"?

Sad to say, the lux --make option has never worked. I think you may be the first one that ever have tried it.
It only handles the Erlang code. But in order to work properly a c-program does also needs to be compiled. Compiled with flags from configure...
I have checked in a simple fix in the develop branch (soon to be released).
Please, try it out.
