@reitermarkus Good catch: it does not. Would you be able to pick that up? |

I think we need more extensive changes to the version number handling. For example, there are many places that assume that |

@MikeMcQuaid hi. so if I understand correctly, this is where you dropped support for 10.13? What does "supported on a best-effort basis" mean? My home-brew installation is no longer working after the latest upgrade, unfortunately. And I am still unable to upgrade from 10.13 (because I still need Aperture). Any advice? Can I go back to the version before this one somehow? I know that some packages probably won't work but that's still better than an entirely broken homebrew installation. Thanks for any advice!

(Aperture runs on Mojave, which Apple still supports, and so do we)
"supported on a best-effort basis" means we won't break it deliberately, and if it gets broken and we are provided with a simple fix, we'll review and include it.

Yes.

Yes but Homebrew maintainers are unlikely to fix problems on 10.13 and binary packages on 10.13 are likely to disappear over time.

Thanks guys! This community is awesome. @fxcoudert I had somehow missed that Aperture is also supported on Mojave. I'll move up one minor version for now 😄. That'll probably be easier for me than trying to submit a PR to fix my issue with 10.13.
Keep up the good work!
