I can confirm that it still runs just fine in the latest version of Mojave, and that I installed it in the past using Homebrew.

I'm encountering the same zlib problem as @toddbertels but my error message is slightly different (line 33) Furthermore, I definitely have zlib installed

@frankhuster What you've described looks more like issue #16 than this.
