make install errors on macOS: illegal option `install -t`

Open mauritslamers opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

As described in the title, I get an error when installing the zam plugins on macOS (Mojave 10.14.2), as it doesn't recognize the -t option provided to the install command.

The install script is designed for GNU/Linux, you will need to install the plugins manually into the relevant folder on macOS.

The reason I am making an issue of it, is that the path make install will install the plugins by default is correct, except that the install command uses an illegal option for macOS (and by extension probably also all BSDs). I was just wondering whether a small change to the make file would allow it to be used directly on macOS.

If you can fix it, I'm happy to take a PR. Unfortunately I don't have a recent macOS to test.

This is no longer an issue thanks to .pkg installer
