I get permission denied errors trying to run the ApproveFalcon.xml script. It appears that it can't write to /opt/local/bin/lib. lib doesn't exist in /opt/local/bin actually. However, I can manually create that folder (OSX asks me for my password), and then I can manually download each of the files and copy them there (again, after entering my password).
Anyway, I can get beyond this point manually, but I thought I'd mention it, in case you weren't aware. I didn't see any mention of running with sudo in the instructions, so I assume that's not what I'm expected to do.
