@jsavin @davew I’m getting a build error when I run `make -C frontier-cli`

```
› make -C frontier-cli
../third_party/cmake-install/bin/cmake -S ../third_party/Paige -B ../third_party/Paige/build-headless -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="arm64;x86_64"
/bin/sh: ../third_party/cmake-install/bin/cmake: Bad CPU type in executable
make: *** [../third_party/Paige/build-headless/libpaige.a] Error 126
```
It looks like it’s trying to use an embedded version of cmake.

Yep, the repo has an arm64 build of cmake, and I’m on an Intel Mac.

@jsavin @davew Ok, I updated the makefile to point to a version of Cmake I have installed on my machine and it’s building now.

[jsavin@mastodon.social]

@tedchoward @davew aah. Good to know. I'll have a look later. I've got an Intel machine I can try it on

[tedchoward@mastodon.social]

@jsavin @davew It works! I'm able to evaluate some basic scripts, and look up things in the database.

@tedchoward @davew And around now you're going to start to notice a whole bunch of stuff that's very broken. 😉

For example I just tried parentOf (string.mid) and got system.compiler.["kernel"].string, which is totally wrong. Heheh. (That's the next battle. Then back to networking.)

@tedchoward I fixed the bug that was causing weird dot-path lookups (I think). You should pull latest develop and rebuild to get it. [cc @davew]

I _so_ miss Frontier (and its babies). Eager to se this happen!

@gfriend @tedchoward

i am totally looking forward to it too.

jake is doing amazing work, and i'm going to be sure to clear a lot of my time when he's ready for me to start building stuff with Frontier on Linux.
