[Spot] Re: Mac OS Spot Library Installation

I have a MacBook running macOS. There seem to be some dependencies in the Spot library on glibc functions, such as strverscmp. I am inexperienced with setting up the libraries and such properly. Is there anywhere I can get help with setting up Spot to be able to access the features I need on a Mac?

Dear Samuel,

Have you tried installing Spot by following the instructions on https://spot.lre.epita.fr/install.html ? If so, what did you do and what failed?

Spot should compile fine on MacOS X. (Regarding strverscmp() and other non-standard functions, Spot comes with its own implementations in case your system does not have them.)
