Feature Request - macports addition #7

Closed mdeguzis closed 4 years ago

Why use MacForge? Brew has it's issues, and macports is proven and has a very strong support system and library of software. I don't want to have to install yet another OS X software manager.

Functionality notes from MacForge

Loading plugins into system applications requires that System Integrity Protection is disabled Loading plugins into some applications may require Apple Mobile File Integrity to be disabled Loading plugins into some applications may require the plugin must be signed and in the /Library directory Applications installed by MacForge may not require SIP to be disabled to function

MacForge is an injection platform that also has a package manager for user convenience. You are free to download AfloatX from the releases tab and use it with mySIMBL but I don't recommend it as it will not be receiving any updates in the future. It's not possible to use AfloatX or any other plugin without a way to inject it into other apps.
