Hello I love SATySFi so much. If we solve this problem, SATySFi must be much better!

Problem

I tried to install SATySFi on macOS High Sierra(10.13.2), however opam install satysfi failed with below errors.

Solution

Just execute brew install autoconf

Proposal

Add brew install autoconf in README.md

Note that it also applies to the Ubuntu instructions.

Or, opam depext -ui satysfi resolves this. (I didn't write this because there is no conf-zip now.)

Please tell me do you thin which is better for beginner?

I encountered the same issue when I made a brew formula for satysfi [1]. (Note that this formula does not work correctly now as #34 has not yet been merged.)

@KilledByNLP I think the brew-way is better currently. opam depext is not inclusive now.

https://github.com/gfngfn/SATySFi/pull/36 OK, i created PR with brew and apt-get
