16. S. Just in case, the error is independent of spdlog version: while I initially tried to build it with the new 1.14.1, then I tried with existing 1.13.0, both failed in the same way.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

It built successfully on all OS versions on the buildbot last time it was tried (except on macOS 13 x86_64 where dependencies failed to build). I see a revbump just happened and most builders have not gotten to it yet, so we can see what happens.

These identifiers are supposed to be defined in cherrytree_1.0.1/config.h. Can you attach that file and build/CMakeFiles/CMakeConfigureLog.yaml? Since you're using Xcode 15.3, which introduces new errors like implicit int (and the buildbot is using an earlier version), maybe this is causing something to fail.

cherrytree installs fine for me on Sonoma too.

Works great still.

please reopen with new information if this is still a problem for you.
