Describe the bug When going through the wpantund Installation Guide for Mac OSX for HomeBrew, I can't install it over the 'wpantund.rb'. Can't even build manually,

To Reproduce Information to reproduce the behavior, including:

  1. Pulled the files from GitHub
  2. Installed all the dependencies for Mac OSX
  3. Went into etc/ folder and tried to install with HomeBrew --> FAIL
  4. Went to top folder to initiate the bootstrap --> FAIL.

Expected behavior I expected to install, or build a functioning 'wpantund'-tool, as described. Nothing worked. Even the "Getting started with nRF52840 MDK USB Dongle" is explained by a MacBook wit Mac OSX. Frustrating.

Console/log output

When trying to install with HomeBrew in ./etc folder with: brew install wpantund.rb Error: wpantund: undefined method `devel' for # <-- HomeBrew install error.

When trying to prepare the compile-procedure over terminal with: ./bootstrap.sh

autoreconf: export WARNINGS= autoreconf: Entering directory '.' autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4 Can't exec "aclocal": No such file or directory at /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.71/share/autoconf/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 274. autoreconf: error: aclocal failed with exit status: 2

*** autoreconf failed with error code 2

Additional context An Update to actual System setups would be great.

wpantund on MAC OS X is experimental. I would recommend using Ubuntu (linux).
