prerequisites for installation #97

Closed ghost closed 4 years ago

Hey,

I'm on a MacOS Catalina (10.15.2) trying to install SpoofMAC.

2 questions:

1) Tried installing using the % git clone git://github.com/feross/SpoofMAC.git command, but was greeted with:

xcrun: error: active developer path ("/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer") does not exist Use sudo xcode-select --switch path/to/Xcode.app to specify the Xcode that you wish to use for command line developer tools, or use xcode-select --install to install the standalone command line developer tools. See man xcode-select for more details.

So, does this installation require xCode? No info on this in the installation instructions.

2) Also, I assume I won't have to amend the consequent installation commands by adding a pathname if I am using the MacOS' native Python 3?

This doesn't have anything to do with SpoofMAC. You're using the git provided by OS X (rather than say homebrew) which comes from xcode, but haven't set up xcode.

... so I’ll interpret this as “yes, you need xCode”. And it has to do with installing SpoofMAC? :) In the same way a “click Control Panel” doesn’t really have anything to do with SpoofMAC but is relevant to the installation, and is included. ;)

Thanks, I guess.
