install.sh is a bash script, finding the executable with the shabang 
#!/usr/bin/env bash

My machines has GNU bash, version 5.1.8

MacOS ships with a completely outdated version of bash, 14 years old:

The issues could arise from this mismatch, but as I don't have access to 
a MacOS machine I can't be sure.
