Torch7: MacOS 10.12 , qt fail

[harveyslash]

when I'm running ./install-deps , or bash ./install-deps , I am getting the error:

qt: This formula either does not compile or function as expected on macOS
versions newer than El Capitan due to an upstream incompatibility.

same problem at macOS 10.12
I edited install-deps file:

<     brew install git readline cmake wget qt
---
>     brew install git readline cmake wget #qt

then qt won't be installed by brew, this will cause luarocks install qtlua fail. But torch still works, for now...

I was able to sucessfully work around this on a fresh install of Sierra this evening.

It looks like qt.rb will execute just fine on MacOS Sierra, you just need to remove the Maximum OS requirement entry to allow it to run.

This is what was required on my machine.

/usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-core/Formula/qt.rb
Comment out line 36 as follows

depends_on MaximumMacOSRequirement => :el_capitan

I am curious if this works for others.

Thanks
