Minimal reprex:

> pak::pkg_sysreqs("dplyr")
Error: 
! error in pak subprocess
Caused by error in `sysreqs2_command(sysreqs_platform, "update")`:

We don't support system requirements for macOS.

That was my guess. But then maybe the error message should highlight that? The current error make it seem like {pak} potentially could support this system if only it would detect the current OS correctly.
