I tried with this but it didn't worked for a bigsur m1 macbook.

sw_vers -productVersion | awk -F. '{printf "%02d%02d%02d", $1, $2, $3}'

Checked in preferences - restarted FreeCAD - works!
Thanks!

You need to pad the numbers with zeros. The following command uses awk to split on '.' and then print each column with two digits each:

Code: Select all

sw_vers -productVersion | awk -F. '{printf "%02d%02d%02d", $1, $2, $3}'

sw_vers -productVersion | sed -e 's/\.//g'

your bash line seems to work for me, as i'm running 10.14.6 ie. mojave

Code: Select all

sw_vers -productVersion | sed -e 's/\.//g'

which results in

Code: Select all

10146

on my system, i think it was mentioned that the start workbench is having issues with m1, and in your github commit it looks like your looking for 101500, which i believe is 10.15.0 ie. catalina, and big sur is either 10.16 or 11.0 depending on who you ask. so maybe that could be the issue with why your check isn't working. or i could be completely wrong. either way i hope your figure it out.

... looking at it some more, my macos version is 10.14.6 but the sed cmd will give a version 10146 and you're checking for a version greater than 101500, so basically is padding zero in there so maybe if your running say catalina 10.15.7 it will evaluate to 10157

which 10157 will always be less than 101500

please call me out if i'm missing something here.
