Cargo Mac Installed Failed

[EmperorEntropy]

Hi! I saw that this project supports macOS, and I wanted to try it out. I know that reloading applications and setting the wallpaper is only supported on Linux platforms, but I wanted to see the colors it could generate from images. When attempting to install this on macOS via cargo, I get the following error:

error[E0432]: unresolved imports util::reload::reload_apps_linux, util::wallpaper::set_wallaper

Is there a way to skip these utils since they won't work on macOS at all? If not, are there alternate ways to install matugen on a macOS? Thank you!

Hi!

Was that the entire error message or was there anything else? If there was, could you please post it?

My bad! I just looked at it again, and it seems I omitted some parts of the message. Here is the entire error message I got:

To reuse those artifacts with a future compilation, set the environment variable `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` to that path.

I hope this is helpful. Sorry for only including very little in my original post!

Could you try building again on the latest commit?

I tried it, and I got a different error this time:

I think I fixed it, could you please try compiling on latest commit again?

[EmperorEntropy]

I can confirm that it works! I do get some warnings, but other than that I was able to run it and test it on an image. Thank you so much!
