Description
Nebulous wants to have Sys::Statistics::Linux::DiskUsage installed in order to be compiled, but that package refuses to install on a Mac:
Sys::Statistics::Linux::DiskUsage: missing
extract Sys::Statistics::Linux::DiskUsage from Sys-Statistics-Linux-0.26.tar.gz
tar xvzf Sys-Statistics-Linux-0.26.tar.gz
Sys-Statistics-Linux-0.26/
Sys-Statistics-Linux-0.26/t/
Sys-Statistics-Linux-0.26/t/140psfind.t
[... snip ... ]
Sys-Statistics-Linux-0.26/README
tardir: Sys-Statistics-Linux-0.26
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/Volumes/Data/ipp/ipp-2.4.darwin_x86 LIB=/Volumes/Data/ipp/ipp-2.4.darwin_x86/lib
OS unsupported! Sorry, but this system seems not to be a linux system! at Makefile.PL line 3.

This module requirement has also been removed from the default install.

I'm afraid nobody has bothered to write a Sys::Statistics backend for OSX so nebdiskd is going to be unusable. I think the only solution here is to split the Nebulous package up into separate client and server versions. As a short term work around, since you don't actually need the Nebulous software for the IPP stack (it's optional), can you just skip trying to install Nebulous?
