Hi and thank you for the report!
Yes, OSX has poor support for the moment because I currently have no device running it.
The reason why the issue is back is because the API and backend structure of some components has changed. However, issues that came with those changes are not fixed for OSX yet. There are probably more issues with OSX in the new version.
I will try to get access to an OSX device to approach all issues and continue implementing features but it may take some time.
I'd be happy if I could find someone "maintaining" the OSX part anyways...
@lfreist Thank you, sounds good. Please update me on how it will be going. I still want to add hwinfo
to Macports, but obviously at least Intel and aarch64 must work for that.
I will look into if I can improve something for PowerPC, but here capabilities are rather limited – FWIU, Apple made most of useful APIs private.
Just leaving this here for now: apparently hardware features on PowerPC macOS can be inquired via Gestalt Manager: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreservices/carbon_core/gestalt_manager Some more info: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/mac/pdf/Operating_System_Utilities/Gestalt_Manager.pdf Discussion: https://arstechnica.com/civis/threads/g5-gestalt-info.497640/
@lfreist While earlier version has been fixed https://github.com/lfreist/hwinfo/issues/26#issuecomment-1509331170 – now we are back to a broken build:
