Watchman is getting failed to install because of folly library

41 Views Asked by At

I'm trying to install Watchman using Homebrew on macOS 10.15, but I'm encountering an error. Here's the command I ran and the output:

brew install watchman
And here's the error message I received:

##O#- #                                 ^

Do not report this issue to Homebrew/brew or Homebrew/homebrew-core!


Error: You are using macOS 10.15.
We (and Apple) do not provide support for this old version.

Try to figure out the problem yourself and submit a fix as a pull request.
We will review it but may or may not accept it.


I also tried installing the Folly dependency separately using 'brew install folly', but I still encountered the same error.

Platform Specification:
- macOS 10.15.7
- Xcode 12.4
- Homebrew 4.2.8
It seems like the error is related to compatibility with macOS 10.15. Is there a workaround for this issue?
