    Did the homebrew step succeed in installing fftw?

    no:

    Error: fftw: no bottle available!

    You can try to install from source with e.g.

      brew install --build-from-source fftw

    Please note building from source is unsupported. You will encounter build

    failures with some formulae. If you experience any issues please create pull

    requests instead of asking for help on Homebrew's GitHub, Twitter or any other

    official channels.

    Well then clearly there's no point in trying to build >_> Try doing what it suggested or update your macos; there are no fftw binaries for it on homebrew because 10.13 is old.

    can i manually install FFTW?

    Probably. I have no experience with macos beside the minimal experience it required to test that it's possible to compile TPT on 10.15 and to set up the CI script on github, so if you can, I don't know how. If you can't and don't have a better idea, you can try adding "-Dstatic=prebuilt" to the meson call; that way it'll use our prebuilt fftw library instead of the homebrew one.

    I don't know what would cause that, try again a few times. If it refuses to work, download it manually and put it in subprojects/packagecache, then try again.
