I was going to write+release a homebrew tap for it, but I don't really feel its worth the effort since we don't have a 2015 model to use right now, and in python our low fidelity simulator is better for testing than gazebo is.
I am about to try OSX. Got any advice? Will El Capitan be a danger or a virtue? I have not made the leap yet.
TIA,
