Yeah, that isn't really what you need to do.

I am not sure the state of your system.

What is the results of

find /Library/Application Support/kicad

in a terminal?

if it's mostly empty, then just add

make install

to your list of makes above, and that sould copy the libraries to
/Library/Application Support/kicad/libraries

and you should be good.

I am not sure what happens when you install all those fp-libs... you
probably just want to install the github or kicad one, depending on if you
want to run online or copy all the github stuff to your system.
