Hi, I thought I would give you an update. xfsprogs v4.18.0 is the last version that offers support for darwin (and it was not compiling that much...). I sort of fixed it here. https://github.com/cmigliorini/xfsprogs-dev/pull/1/files Was able to use mkfs-xfs and xfs_repair on a file. Then I dd--ed the file to a diskand was able to mount it from a Linux box.

Hi, Thanks much for replying! In fact my main issue is support for XFS v5. But then yes, it's going to be a decent amount of work to get a more recent xfsprogs 5+ to compile. I'll give it a shot anyway.

In fact it does work -- I was using a /dev/diskx so needed sudo. I managed to create a filesystem, add files on another machine and read them from my Catalina box. Still, creating the filesystem on another, more recent, linux box does not work because fuse-xfs does not support V5 -- so an XFS filesystem created on a modern machine will not be recognized. I figured out you use xfsprogs, which I'm willing to upgrate to a more recent version, so I pulled 3.1.4 (based on xfsprogs/VERSION) from kernel.org,...
