Installer Does Not Correctly Recognize Incompatible Versions of macOS #283

I have a very old Mac Mini I'm using as a server, and the latest version of OS X (yes, it predates the "macOS" renaming!) it can run is OS X El Capitan 10.11. More recent versions of Yubikey Manager do not work with OS X 10.11. I knew this when I tried installing the most recent Yubikey Manager, but the PKG installer apparently did not. While the installed application would not run, the installer itself did not recognize that it was being run on an incompatible version of macOS (née OS X).

I know that PKG installers can run compatibility-check scripts before actually installing, so basically that's what the Yubikey Manager installer should do. Bonus points if the incompatibility error it displays includes a link to the most recent version of the installer that actually does work on that Mac. (I tried installing 0.3.0, which was the oldest one available from here, and it worked. There just isn't anything in the release notes to indicate whether any of the newer versions would work, as well.)

Hey!
Thank you for reporting this. We usually try to state what OS versions we support, however I can see that is not stated anywhere for this project. We will try to be more clear about that or run a compatibility check for the pkg, as you mentioned. I will keep this issue open until that has been done.
