DFU SDK v16 on Mac OS X

Hi,  I am trying to get DFU from SDK16 working on my Mac.(Mac Os Mojave).  I am following the instruction on https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fsdk_nrf5_v16.0.0%2Fble_sdk_app_dfu_bootloader.html

I have tried first to build the micro-eco library by clicking on the build_all.bat file and got the following errors from the Terminal.app:

/**************************

SLMini-I5-172:~ slareau$ /Users/slareau/nrf52_development/nRF5_SDK_16/external/micro-ecc/build_all.bat ; exit;

logout

Saving session...

...copying shared history...

...saving history...truncating history files...

...completed.

/*************************

To solve that step, I have navigate to the micro.ecc folder in terminal.  I have open the build_all.bat file in TexEdit ,  copy and paste the following command directly in Terminal.app  

git clone https://github.com/kmackay/micro-ecc.git

and then

make -C nrf52hf_armgcc/armgcc      // I believe that  the only one that I need for my project

This work perfectly. 

I have tried to generate a public and private key with nrf_util.  I have done that without problem in SDK14.3

nrf_util ask me to upgrade to the latest version with I did. 

In Terminal.app  I have navigate to the dfu folder where I want the key to be generated and type the command :

nrfutil keys generate priv.perm

I have the following problems :
