Homebrew Question OS X Please set DEVKITPRO in your environment

[DeuX]

I admit I'm very raw when it comes to compiling. I have managed to clone a few GitHub projects into my projects folder on OS X, but when I run "make" I get the following error:

Makefile:6: *** "Please set DEVKITPRO in your environment. export DEVKITPRO=<path to>/devkitpro".

Anyone can shed some light on what to do next or what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance

You need devkitPro.

You need devkitPro.

I got DevKitPro

I got DevKitPro

Then do what it says.

It literally says what to do in the error message. Run the command 'export DEVKITPRO=[path]' where [path] is the devkit pro install directory

Well... that was stupid of me... thank you both

You need to add the correct path(s) to your bash profile. Follow this guide here: https://natelandau.com/my-mac-osx-bash_profile/ make sure you have your bash profile configured similar to my own as seen in the attached picture.

This is not working for me, I'm still getting the "

Any other useful idea? I also tried the .bash_profile thing and nothing...

note that changing $DEVKITPRO with /opt/devkitpro or ${DEVKITPRO} doesn't make any difference.

Also tried to add the exports in ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc,~/.bash_profile as well as template folder/those files.

Also, $DEVKITARM seems to work...

p.S: Yes, I rebooted the terminal, the mac after saving changes for those files and nothing...

Hello ! Did you figured out how to resolve you problem ? I think I face the same issue,

I installed devkit with the devkitpro-pacman-installer.pkg file (which I found at the devkitPro/pacman Github repository), installed the wii-dev package (I plan to work on Brainslug), restarted my computer but whatever I do, when I try to make the Brainslug folder I get this error:

Which is kind of strange because when I print the devkitPPC env variable, my shell tells me that it is set.

I you want to know, I'm on macOS Sonoma and my shell is ZSH.

Thank you

I got DevKitPro

The next step is to get a real computer, and then use Windows or Linux.

This. Windows and Linux are best to setup devKitPro; otherwise, you can setup a virtual machine without having to override your current installation.

Jayro, SylverReZ, thank you for your answer, I guess I'll use Linux then

 

[Jayro]

Linux is a developer's wet dream for setting up development tools.

You're welcome. Linux is a freedom platform when it comes to customization as well as making it easy to setup SDKs.

Hey guys, I figured out what was happening and I share it in case somebody faces the same situation as me:

Simply, I was running make with sudo because of some restrictions but the env variables with sudo aren't the same as the regular (I didn't know this twist before, I understood what was happening by running make without sudo by accident).

So, to solve this problem I just had to pass the -E (or --preserve-env) param to sudo, which indicate to preserve the user environment variables.

Also, even if I had already solved my problem, thanks draftguy123 for your help
