I was told by a man called Claude, miniPack runs under macOS 10.12.5.
Well, this is a beta version from Sierra, but he sent me a screenshot.
miniPack exhaustively runs on every versions of Mac OS X, the very
latest, but even with PowerPC Apple computers, with a specific binary.

Instructions are not complicated, because miniPack is running "out-of-
the-box" just being uncompressed. You just have to open the generated
folder, and click over the binary. This is the first working proof that
it runs. This is the case on every computers. It runs everywhere =)
It doesn't matter if you have an old one, or if it's not up-to-date !

I would be pleased if you send a screenshot. It must be running anyway.

Regards,
