Michael,

Was there ever a solution found to running GRASS on the Mac (10.11 or now 10.12) without disabling SIP?

I was using the homebrew way of installing it and it worked with enabled
SIP.

No idea about the native way.

Cheers,

Rainer

Thanks,

I just posted a new binary for GRASS 7.3 built fully 64 bit, with wxPython 3.0.2.0 to the GRASS for Mac site (http://grassmac.wikidot.com)

It turns out the previous "64bit" GRASS binary still ran 32bit Python. I had to hack the python_wrapper.py file, but this one is fully 64bit AFAICT. I also tried
some hacks that might be a way to solve the inability to run GRASS on El Capitan with SIP enabled. There are a couple of known bugs in the wxPython 3.x
GUI

1. The most serious is switching to 3D mode and back to 2D mode leaves one of the map display menu buttons corrupted. It seems the only thing you can
do is to close the map display and open a new one.

2. There are also some popup lists (e.g., for switching mapsets) that do not behave as they should. You cannot select an item with a mouse (but you can
select with arrow keys and <return>) unless you hit <escape> to destroy part of the control. Then you can use the mouse to click something.

Please let us know if you encounter any other bug or strange behavior.

Also, and importantly if anyone is running El Capitan, it would be great if you could reenable SIP (if you've turned it off) and see if this version runs. Of
course, maybe I've "fixed" it so that it only runs on my system and crashes on everyone else's.

Enjoy!

Michael

This works if you are compiling it yourself. But I am providing installable binaries for people who do not want to compile or are unable to do so. AFAIK, Homebrew does not do this.

Partly - homebrew has bottles which provide pre-compiled binaries, but
I don't think they are used in GRASS - checked: no - they are not.
