Dear all,

I met struggles while trying to install NEST on my MacOS Sonoma v. 14.7.6 (Intel). 

First issue is that I cannot install NEST with PyNEST as it is described in the manual (https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/v2.18.0/installation/mac_install.html) as I get an "Error: invalid option: --with-python". 

And the second one is that even when I try to install NEST as it is, without PyNEST, then, after a seemingly successful installation I cannot launch neither 'helpindex' nor 'helpdesk' commands. In the first case I get an error message "<path-to-nest>/nest/help/helpindex.hlp: No such file or directory", and in the second, respectively, "<path-to-nest>/nest/index.html does not exist". I guess that occurs because the installation goes wrong at some stage, but I have no idea what to check and how to fix it.

Would be grateful for any information,

Sincerely yours,

Daria.
