Describe the Bug

Several reports of macOS build failures. Consolidating into one issue.

• Brew install sunshine but "CMake Generate step failed." #2369
• MacOS - Compilation fails when using MacPorts for v0.23.1 on Mac M1 Pro #2482
• macOS install failed by Homebrew #2629
• macOS homebrew problem #2655
• Unable to update installed sunshine macos homebrew  #2780
• macOS 系统下只能通过软件编码 #2837
• Error: Processing of port Sunshine failed #3005
• error when brew install sunshine #3025
• Installing on MacOS M3 #3052
• macOS install via Brew fails at make step #3098
• Install sunshine on macOS failure  #3139
• MacPorts build fails on M2 Mac Mini (2023) when ffmpeg is installed #3169

Expected Behavior

No response

Additional Context

1. For brew, this may be resolved by clearing brew's cache. See Brew install sunshine but "CMake Generate step failed." #2369 (comment)

   stable

   sudo rm -rf "$(brew --cache --build-from-source sunshine-beta)"

   beta

   sudo rm -rf "$(brew --cache --build-from-source sunshine)"

2. Then install the beta version (v0.23.1 is unlikely to compile at this point without patches)

   brew install sunshine-beta

Mac M3 Air - sadly, clearing brew's cache didn't help. It did alter the log a bit though.

@Pheggas brew install sunshine-beta seems to work

@Pheggas brew install sunshine-beta seems to work

For whatever reason, this is still not working for me

@iMonZ There is now an official homebrew tap, You can replace the realqhc/homebrew tap with https://github.com/LizardByte/homebrew-homebrew

sunshine-beta installed & worked for me on macOS 15.0 (24A335)

Thanks!
I switched now the tap and get this:

brew install sunshine-beta
