Has anybody pgbackrest running on MacOS ( Monterey ? )

If yes are you willing to share the how to ?

Or can anybody guide us to an “easy” how to ?

Many thanks in advance,

Marc

It's written in Perl, so installation from source should be easy.

(You won't need docker, though.)

This hasn't been the case in a long, long time.

That said, we've certainly had folks build it on MacOS before and had
success with it. I wouldn't consider it to be a common deployment
platform though.

Thanks,
