apt-get: command not found (installation problem) #23

Closed tonyhqanguyen closed 6 years ago

tonyhqanguyen commented 6 years ago

I am following the instructions from http://kwip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html to install kWIP. However, after executing sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev cmake build-essential git and entering in my password, I get: "sudo: apt-get: command not found"

I am not sure what's wrong here. Any help is appreciated. My computer is a mac if that is relevant.

OK, those instructions are for Linux. kWIP is only supported on Linux, but should work OK on a Mac, provided your dataset is quite small (or your Mac very large!). In your case, I would use the brew package manager. I think you'll need to install the dependencies using brew install zlib cmake git gcc, though I don't use a Mac so I can't confirm this.

Let me know if you have trouble. Cheers, K
