Today I was helping @djleo build the steemd source code on OSX. We wanted to update to the newest release. We were going to use @teego's recent homebrew approach, simply:
brew install steem
And it should be all good to go. However, evidently on the 0.9.0rc2 & 0.10.0 updates, we found it broke during make
due to a missing file:
Scanning dependencies of target project_secp256k1
[ 6%] Performing autogen step for 'project_secp256k1'
/usr/local/bin/glibtoolize: line 406: /usr/local/Library/ENV/4.3/sed: No such file or directory
A little google sleuthing brought me to a few pages where this is mentioned, most notably this one:
https://github.com/Homebrew/legacy-homebrew/issues/43874
Evidently, the problem is in a few lines of glibtool
and glibtoolize
, where sed is hardcoded to the wrong location. By going into the file manually, you can change the hardcoded path to the real path to sed, and the program will compile fully.
So for me, sed is located at /usr/bin/sed
, you you can check by running:
$ which sed
If you go and look at the sed path of glibtool
or glibtoolize
, you'll see sed is set like this:
SED= "/usr/local/Library/ENV/4.3/sed"
Rather than clumsily replacing that hard coding by hand, you can fix the problem the right way by running the following:
brew update
brew doctor
brew uninstall libtool
export HOMEBREW_BUILD_FROM_SOURCE
brew install libtool
Then if you check the source of glibtool, for me, in /usr/local/Cellar/libtool/2.4.6/bin
, you'll see:
SED="/usr/local/Library/Homebrew/shims/super/sed"
And when you then run make, everything compiled (well, at least for me).
Good luck !
Thanks very much for this, I have no idea whats going on but you got it working for me! i wouldn't have had a hope of getting this working so thank you. I hope more people see this as its not actually very hard to do at all.
REALLY grateful - thank you!!!!

I don't think it becomes macOS until sierra - http://www.apple.com/osx/

I didn't mean to be pedantic, was just a light-hearted comment (hence the smilie).
But you are absolutely right, current versions are still branded OS X. But I bet they abandon the OS X name and go with macOS across the board come fall 2016.

EDIT:
You can fix most of this just by upgrading homebrew & now using homebrew normally - @teego already updated everything to version 0.11.

I did brew upgrade, and brew update... then brew install steem and got
brew -v
So not sure why I am not getting the version 0.11 mentioned.

I went and found @teego's post here, and you need to install it directly from his repo. It's not part of "core" #Homebrew packages.
You can do that by running this command:
brew install TigerND/core/steem
