Hi Jonas,
haha I see. It seemed very easy at the time, though. The binaries were
just there, so I linked them. The reason for doing it that was was just
that the installer/FAQ mentioned using the "Unix tools" option in the
installer, but the "installer" is different now the App Store and has no
options.
If there is a "proper" way to do things, though, of course it would be
better to update the documentation and installer to reflect that. I have
to wonder, though, what does the official way do? The same thing I did?
Or does it install separate tools?
Thank you,
Noah Silva
