The thing is they don't have 1 for mac osx. they only have one for linux and I don't even have the dependencies to run it. I checked at their main home page. under the downloads section and it is not there at all. Evenm the other installer which shall not be named say they will come out with one soon and this is for the newer version.
Good luck.
