Hi there, I saw in the release notes for 3.11.0 that " Preliminary support for Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) has been added." What does this mean? Is there any more information on how to install it on 10.11? I've tried but encountered issues and further searching led me to this link (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348909) where it's been mentioned that: *OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) does not allow user links in /usr/bin. It is cleared from non-Apple things and is further locked down using some new mechanism: I.e. not even root can put links there.* Does anyone know the current status? Cheers, Sean |

Looks like a reasonable restriction, e.g. on FreeBSD all software installed from ports goes into /usr/local prefix as well -- Regards, Konstantin |

Came across this blog: http://oldpanda.net/2014/11/18/Install-Valgrind-on-Mac/ and after running xcode-select --install, it worked. Hope this helps someone else. Cheers.
