Installing on Mac OS X 10.11 and higher
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Starting with Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan), Apple has enabled `System Integrity Protection`_ (SIP), and because of SIP, some installation processes may fail, even with ``sudo``, because they intrude on protected areas of the system (if you've installed python via `Homebrew`_ this probably won't happen since the Python libraries are installed to an unrestricted folder). If this does happen, try installing beets only for the current user by running ``pip install --user beets``. It might also be a good idea to add ``~/Library/Python/2.7/bin`` to your ``$PATH``.
