Can't make sample on MacOS: error expected associated value for arg --configuration

[virtualandy]

Hi! This looks like a ton of fun, just have a question about a problem I'm seeing trying to install/build on macOS.

I downloaded Xcode Beta and the associated toolchain (both 3.0-PREVIEW-6 and the development snapshot from Aug 23rd). Added it to my path (see below) but am getting this error when I do make run:

error: expected associated value for argument: --configuration

Here's the full error:

Here's the contents of /Library/Developer/Toolchains:

And here's my PATH:

/Library/Developer/Toolchains/swift-latest.xctoolchain/usr/bin:/...<bunch of nvm and rvm junk>

Thanks for any help!

@virtualandy There is a PR Kitura/Package-Builder#19 to fix that. Meanwhile, you can do the following - replace the Makefile in your Package-Builder/build directory with the Makefile from the PR - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vadimeisenbergibm/Package-Builder/1b9404c2760c6eb213f866c12677e6600b7b0678/build/Makefile

@virtualandy You can also simply do a swift build to build it, followed by .build/debug/Kitura-Sample to run it.

[vadimeisenbergibm]

@virtualandy the issue was resolved by merging PR Kitura/Package-Builder#19. Just remove Package-Builder directory and rerun make run

[virtualandy]

@vadimeisenbergibm worked perfectly after that PR closed and I removed the dir as you suggested. Thanks!

@shmuelk that also worked fine. My makefile debugging skills leave a lot to be desired, thanks for the simplified instructions too!
