You can't any more. $ touch /usr/bin/just-testing touch: /usr/bin/just-testing: Operation not permitted $ sudo touch /usr/bin/just-testing Password: touch: /usr/bin/just-testing: Operation not permitted Since System Integrity Protection came out with El Capitan, unless you reboot into recovery mode and type some "void your warranty" commands into the terminal app on the recovery partition, it's simply no longer possible for 3rd-party applications and installers to write files into /usr/bin. Attempting to install over /usr/bin/python on any macOS released in the last 2 years will just fail. -glyph _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
