Yes, this is a know problem with homebrew (work out of the box with a macport installation). Please refer to "http://www.adaltas.com/projects/node-sigar.html" at the bottom of the page. Basically, 'aclocal' is in '/usr' while 'pkg-config' in is '/usr/local' where is homebrew, so we are just adding a reference to the last one
ahh Thanks David, I searched the github page for OSX stuff, not the other page (figure install stufff would be int he repo ;))
yes, i might add it, it sounds wise
