weirdly the following works and prints worked

#!/usr/bin/env bash

IFS='.' read -r macos_major macos_minor macos_patch << EOF
11.6.4
EOF

#echo $macos_major $macos_minor $macos_patch

if [ "$macos_major" -lt 10 ] || { [ "$macos_major" -eq 10 ] && [ "$macos_minor" -lt 12 ]; } || { [ "$macos_minor" -eq 12 ] && [ "$macos_patch" -lt 6 ]; }; then
    echo "$0: macOS X is not supported, upgrade to 10.12.6 or higher"
    exit 1
else
    echo "worked"
fi

Do we need to fix the logic in the installer?
