Mac OSX Setup is Outdated #691

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

Ok, so I got through the following commands:

  1. xcode-select --install
  2. /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
  3. brew install python
  4. brew install gettext
  5. brew link --force gettext
  6. curl -O http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py
  7. sudo python ez_setup.py -U setuptools
  8. sudo easy_install -U py2app
  9. git clone git@github.com:wummel/linkchecker.git linkchecker
  10. cd linkchecker

However, when I got to: pip install -r requirements.txt --use-mirrors, it was broken, due to --use-mirrors being deprecated. So I substituted in --no-cache-dir as suggested by StackOverflow. Which did something...

I then went to complete the make app command, but got an error: make: *** No rule to make targetapp'. Stop.`

I tried make linkchecker, make setup.py, and make install-rpm.sh, but got the message that there is nothing to be done for any of them.

What do I do to finish this last step and get the .dmg file?

EDIT: I'm not used to Mac, only been on one for a month for my new job. Maybe I'm missing something extremely obvious here? I tried sudo and no dice.

Just followed user @bootstraponline old post here. Installing the extra modules he did and running: make localbuild did something...but did not create a .dmg file.
