I don’t think libusb-1.0 is standard in el capitan but I believe MacPorts has 
that in their ports. The main issue may be the location of the libs from 
MacPorts versus the where owfs expects to find them?

OK, I don’t think I have any devices based on those.

I will try again in the next couple of days using the latest build and see how 
it goes.

Best wishes,
