Hi team,

I ran the install script, and it compiled a lot of stuff before failing at this point:

    Process exited with code: ExitFailure 1

I've googled the error but all the answers seem unrelated to gifcurry. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a binary that I can just download and run?

Cheers

Same, hopefully it is installable via homebrew in the future
