Following the directions on the github page for MacOS .pkg install the command

$ snapteld -h
-bash: snapteld: command not found

Looking for the binary and found the old naming convention

$ ls /usr/local/bin/ | grep snap
snapctl
snapd
snaptel

And I get this error:

$ sudo snapd --plugin-trust 0 --log-level 1 
Password:
This command is deprecated, please use snapteld

I'm working with @saalt - snapteld installs to sbin which was not in her path. We'll need to update this how-to to make this clearer.

I've opened an issue in packaging repo to improve the wrapper to detect and warn about /usr/local/sbin in $PATH. Per discussion, we should also:

  1. improve documentation about PATH requirements
  2. change the order for the downloads so it's less confusing
  3. use more precise language around homebrew v.s. pkg choices for MacOS
