Re: IMPORTANT build change for OSX users

 

OK, so the config statement is in the dev docs, but I’m not sure it should be.  Now that 4.x is a few versions behind us, I think we should retire all the doc about building without kicad-mac-builder.  Does that sound reasonable?

Either way, we need to update the config of kicad-mac-builder.

Cheers,
Jeff.
