macOS support about gofu HOT 5 CLOSED

Does the following command work for you?

install -d -m 0755 /usr/local/bin

from gofu.

the flag error is gone but I get this:

$ make install
GOPATH=/Users/talal/x/src/github.com/majewsky/gofu/.gopath GOBIN=/Users/talal/x/src/github.com/majewsky/gofu/build go install  -ldflags '-s -w' 'github.com/majewsky/gofu'
install -d -m 0755 "/usr/local/bin"
for APPLET in i3status rtree prettyprompt; do ln -s gofu "/usr/bin/${APPLET}"; done
ln: /usr/bin/i3status: Operation not permitted
ln: /usr/bin/rtree: Operation not permitted
ln: /usr/bin/prettyprompt: Operation not permitted
make: *** [install] Error 1

Changing the install force section to the following works:

install: FORCE all
	install -d -m 0755 "/usr/local/bin"
	for APPLET in $(APPLETS); do ln -s gofu "/usr/local/bin/$${APPLET}"; done

from gofu.

Edit: after a quick make install --help, I found that on macOS the directory flag is -C 🤦‍♂️

So changing the flag to -C and the PREFIX at the top to /usr/local works, no additional changes required.

This change also passes the git to bit test :double facepalm:

install as in install -D -m 0755 ... is not the same as install in make install.

install the command is /usr/bin/install (manpage for the GNU version). install in a make invocation is a Makefile target.

I committed a fix; it should work for you with commit 5d966f1 if you do make install PREFIX=/usr/local.

Thank you, works as intended 😄
