OSVR Tracker Viewer fails because of open-scene-graph dependency

[enilsen16]

It looks like open-scene-graph doesn't support OS X 10.11. Homebrew/legacy-homebrew#46372

Is there any other way to install the Tracker Viewer on OS X?

Well, openscenegraph is a required dependency: tracker viewer is a pretty simple application combining OSVR and OSG. The options are presumably either manually building OSG to work around the build issue you linked to, or resolve the upstream issue. Given that openscenegraph is an active project (as is homebrew) it's probably safe to assume that 10.11 fixes will arrive to those projects at some point if you can't do it. (Unfortunately, lacking a Mac myself, I can't do it.)

Homebrew has a PR in the works - Homebrew/legacy-homebrew#46776

@enilsen16 Building OSG manually worked for me and I got Tracker Viewer working. Try that if you can't wait :>

@gching @enilsen16 which source code did you use, latest from repo? If so, can you try doing brew install open-scene-graph --HEAD? This should install the latest version of OSG from source.

@d235j I used specifically OSG 3.4.0 back in December, but running into other problems such as not being able to detect the HMD so can't really test it out. I'll try building it with the latest version when I can!

[enilsen16]

Yeah if brew install open-scene-graph --HEAD works we should update the formula. 😄
