At that point it might be worth installing Linux on the computer and running a relay that way :)

Hi all,

 

So I am having a bit of a dilemma, the computer I am running my relay on is running Mac OS High Sierra, and despite the fact that Apple Support had priorly told me it would be able to run Mojave (via the serial number) when I go to install Mojave, I get an error saying Mojave “cannot be installed on this computer”. Ugh.

 

As my relay is running via homebrew, I created a homebrew support ticket for this incident, and this was their response.

 

“Generally homebrew supports only the last 3 releases, which would mean you have 2 more years of bottle support at least. It doesn’t mean it’ll stop working the day after it ends though. While having an up to date system is a good thing, the homebrew packages might very well work for years after official support is dropped, you’ll just have to compile updates for yourself.”

 

The official homebrew support ticket can be viewed here: https://discourse.brew.sh/t/continued-support-for-certain-processes-on-older-versions-of-mac-os/3119

 

 

Seeing as they say homebrew supports the last three releases of Mac OS, I should be fine for another while. However, they hinted that the main thing that is dropped support for is bottles, so I am wondering if running the tor relay software via homebrew requires this process? I can’t really buy a new computer right now, and that’s the only available that isn’t a laptop, so I am trying to find available options. Thanks all.
