Summary: fontforge @20120731_3 fails to build (high sierra) → fontforge @20120731_3: error: use of undeclared identifier 'CantInstallAppleEventHandler'

Maybe updating fontforge to the latest version will help. See #43844 where that update is requested.

Ok this is another instance of a project using an obsolete macOS macro that is not prefixed with underscores (require_noerr). These have been deprecated for awhile, and now finally removed in High Sierra and replaced with underscored versions (in this case, __Require_noErr).

It looks like this has not been changed in the latest fontforge sources upstream. I ​reported the issue to them.
