Hi Houtan, thanks for your help. 1. This is a copy and paste mistake from my side. He used “brew reinstall dynare”, which is the reason for “==> Reinstalling homebrew/science/dynare”. When dropping --without-octave, Dynare is correctly installed, but the mex-files are missing because no Matlab was detected. 2. I don’t see any line break or whitespace in the command line text I got sent. How did you identify this issue? Or did your email-client do a linebreak? Sorry for bothering you with this. We also tried using the linux-pipeline with “configure” and “make all”, but make then complains about bison 3.0 being installed on the machine and the build not supporting it.

Juli 2016 05:00 An: List for Dynare developers Betreff: Re: [DynareDev] Mac build Dynare There are several problems with this: 1) As stated on the site, the instruction is “brew install dynare” not “brew dynare” 2) There should be no line break. The user has typed "—with- matlab” and not “—with-matlab" The user should read the github site more carefully.

However, the options passed are not correctly translated: Bs-iMac:~ bb$ brew dynare --HEAD --with-matlab=/Applications/MATLAB_R2015b.app --with-matlab-version=R2015b --without-octave -v ==> Reinstalling homebrew/science/dynare with --with-matlab=, --with-matlab-version=, --without-octave As you can see, both --with-matlab and --with-matlab-version suddenly have empty arguments, giving rise to Error: You must build Dynare with Matlab and/or Octave support Does anyone know what is going on?
