El Capitan (MacOS 10.11) Warnings

Warning 1: Installing El Capitan will break an existing NetHack installation.
The installation process moves files from /usr/games to /Library/SystemMigration/History/Migration-(some UUID)/QuarantineRoot/.
Warning 2: The currently available NetHack binaries are NOT compatible with El Capitan.
The installation is meant to go in /usr/games and fails because this directory is not available to non-Apple applications under El Capitan.
For additional technical details, look for information on "System Integrity Protection" (for example the Wikipedia article on SIP).


There are several binaries available for the Mac; you only need one of the following packages.
None of these binaries will run on 68K-based Macs. Only the first binary below will run under OS X Lion.
