Indeed.

Instead of sudo apt-get use brew to install the required tools.

You must install Homebrew before.

Then run:

brew install automake libtool readline

I don't know if the packages names are the same. Probably gcc and git are already installed. Please inform if it works.

sibo7851 commented 3 years ago

Yeah I tried with brew as well and didn't have any luck, brew is really restrictive on newer version of Mac.

kroggen commented 3 years ago

Well, this is not an AergoLite problem, but a general one. You can figure it out how to install the required tools that are listed above. Once they are installed the compilation may work. If not, please inform.

While this may not be a problem directly related to Aergolite, there is a problem in the README which I think should be addressed. The README instructions specify that the same commands to install will work on both Linux and Mac, while this is not the case.
