Tigerbrew is a fork of Homebrew, and does not have a shairport-sync formula. The formulae it does have in its default tap are listed here: https://github.com/mistydemeo/tigerbrew/tree/master/Library/Formula

Gotcha, I did not realize this was a limited subset of homebrew formulae rather than a superset including compatibility patches as needed (much like how macports functions for PPC targets.) The language in the readme suggesting that not all formulae were tested implied the opposite.

I haven't had the time to update Tigerbrew to bring in Homebrew changes for quite awhile, because my life has been busy! This formula did not exist the last time I merged in updates from Homebrew. I'm hoping sometime in the next few months to bring Tigerbrew up to date with Homebrew again.

Is there any update on this? I was also looking to install Shairport-Sync on my old iMac...

thanks for the great work so far!
