Re: [O] Beginner installing org-mode 9.1.2 from git fails on homebrew emacs-mac

[Umbromancer]

Solved.

I was successful following the same steps using homebrew emacs-plus
(https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus) instead of
homebrew emacs-mac
(https://github.com/railwaycat/homebrew-emacsmacport). So it seems
this must be an issue with the railwaycat distro or its homebrew
formula.
