I'm assuming you're still referring to MacOS?

The various tools included in MacOS are often old or BSD versions instead of GNU tools. There's lots of gotchas when writing scripts on MacOS that will run as part of a Linux build pipeline.

Use Linux to target Linux.

Yes I am referring to the certified POSIX userspace on macOS.

Portable UNIX software should use POSIX anyway not GNUisms.
