@chapman39, since you asked, my preference would be to replace /opt/homebrew
everywhere in this section with $(brew --prefix)
since that will always do the right thing. But we can do that later. Let's just get this in.
I'm going through the Mac build documentation for my machine. So far I just added one comment.
I was getting thrown off by the documentation mentioning
/opt/homebrew
for the installation prefix, when it's/usr/local
for Intel-based Macs. I'm new to usingbrew
, so maybe I'm just a noob, but it did take me a bit to figure out.
