HWSensors can’t be installed on this computer [genuine iMac 6,1]

Upfront apologies, I found no better place to ask this.

I can't seem to install any version past 5.3.873 on my real iMac6,1. Tried several versions. The installer barks an error. And I can't really understand what it is checking.

can t install

And that is strange, since 5.3.937 adds Profile for iMac6,1.

Do I need to compile a version myself? What is the newest version that will work? (with fan control?)

Many thanks in advance!

Trying to build version 5.3.937 with Xcode 4.6.3 on OS X 10.7.5. That seems to be difficult because of No visible @interface for 'NSArray' declares the selector 'firstObject' but that i could fix with using [array objectAtIndex:0] instead of [array firstObject].

/HWSensors-5.3.937/HWMonitor/MainMenu.xib: The document "MainMenu.xib" could not be opened. Could not read archive. with Please use a newer version of Xcode. Consider changing the document's Development Target to preserve compatibility. seems something I can't seem to fix.

I need something newer than an iMac6,1 to compile software for that same iMac6,1 :confused:
