[Bug] The Homebrew binary isn't always in /opt/homebrew/bin on macOS 11 about ramiel HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi, could you please try this build of Ramiel and let me know if it changes anything? I decided to check sysctl for whether or not Ramiel is running as translated or not (on macOS 11.x only) to decide what Brews path should be.

Alright I tried the new build and there's a different error this time:

The "detailed" log is here:

Device Information:

Model: (null)
iOS Version: (null)
Bootargs: "-v"

Other Error Information:

sysctl returned -1 when we expected 1 or 0.
Failed to get proc_translated info from sysctl!

Detailed Error Log:

0

from ramiel.

Ok, so it seems that the fix works, since sysctl puts 0 into ret, but for some reason the sysctlbyname function is returning -1. I think i'll just remove the check for sysctlbyname's return value since it seems to work fine.

Will get a new build notarised and will send again just to make sure it works :)

Alright have uploaded a new build, please give it a try @ConsoleLogLuke! Heres the link

Works great, thanks for the quick fix! Nice job with Ramiel in general btw, it seems like a really well-made tool.

Sort of a related question: Is there any reason for you to install dependencies through Homebrew as opposed to compiling the libraries alongside Ramiel and linking them? Homebrew can be pretty slow and having to install libraries system-wide for an application doesn't really seem to be that ideal. I guess compile time and download size could be reasons for using Homebrew for it, but the libraries you use don't seem to be large enough to make that too much of an issue.

Thats great, thanks!

The only reason I need Brew at all is to get iproxy via libimobiledevice, I already bundle the required dylibs with Ramiel but until I sit down and get a bundled iproxy binary to use the included libimobildevice dylib this is the solution. Will likely sort it out in the next week or so :)

Oh that makes sense, sounds good!
