Unfortunately there is no realpath on MacOS :-/

You could consider using an own realpath function that calls the native function (if present) or

realpath() {
    path=`eval echo "$1"`
    folder=$(dirname "$path")
    echo $(cd "$folder"; pwd)/$(basename "$path"); 
}

Or just add this to your readme:

MacOs Users must
install [homebrew](https://brew.sh/)
brew install coreutils

[sdetweil]

or add that to the postinstall script

realpath isn't in the coreutils anyhow..

I have pushed a fix give it a try, looks good here, git pull

[sdetweil]

I believe that this is fixed for you, as you also tested the port fix successfully

please confirm

[jalibu]

I uninstalled coreutils (which solved the problem for me yesterday) and it still works. good job

thanks for the fast update
