Walletwasabi: Can't update to newest Wasabi (MacOS version too old)

[raindogdance]

The newest Wasabi version requires MacOS 10.13, and my Mac laptop is on 10.12 and won't be able to go higher.
As I understand it, I cannot use Wasabi anymore, as older versions won't connect to the backend.

Is there any chance Wasabi will be compatible with an older MacOs version again?

Wasabi uses .NET Core 3.1 and this version doesn't support macOS 10.12.
Take a look at this thread #2913 and specially https://github.com/zkSNACKs/WalletWasabi/issues/2913#issuecomment-568891746

I don't think so.

Thanks for the quick reply and the link(s).

specially #2913 (comment)

I can't find the suggested lines in the newest Wasabi's info.plst file (though they are present in my older version). I'm not too hopeful anyway though, as the poster in the linked thread is on MacOs 10.12.6 (which is also my version) and wasn't successful, so I guess I am out of luck for now.

sorry about this @raindogdance, but @yahiheb explains it correctly, we only support what dotnet supports...

I'm closing this, thanks for the report!

@raindogdance try to build from source. Also, I am working on a Continous delivery system, you can try this one https://dev.azure.com/zkSNACKs/_apis/resources/Containers/6637237/WasabiBuildOutputs?itemPath=WasabiBuildOutputs%2FWalletWasabi.Gui%2Fbin%2Fdist%2Fcdelivery%2FWasabi-04092020-osx-x64.zip

Hey @molnard, thank you for additional advice. I've never built anything from source yet, and I understand it, this has low chances of succeeding (plz correct me if wrong here) due to "hard" requirement of dotnet anyway, so I'll leave that option for the last try. Will try your link first, but otherwise I guess the easiest option for me for now is to get access to another computer to get Wasabi running again, which shouldn't be a problem in the near future. Thx :)

@raindogdance It is not as complicated as you think, here is a link that can help https://docs.wasabiwallet.io/using-wasabi/BuildSource.html

Thank you @yahiheb, this looks actually doable :)
