Hi, First Post!
I tried updating PlayOnMac for the first time in years, and got a rather strange error message:
PlayOnMac cannot find nc (from NetCat)
You need to install it to continue
This is strange because I already have nc and installed a redundant copy with homebrew for good measure. So what's the matter?
Additional System Info:
* PlayOnMac: 4.4.3
* OS: MacOS Monterey 12.4
* Processer: Intel

Really strange, netcat should be included in PlayOnMac package..
Where is it installed? Does the command "which nc" works?

Oh wow, hi!
% which nc
/usr/local/bin/nc
It's definitely there.

Does it exist in /usr/bin?
ls /usr/bin/nc

It also exists under `/usr/bin/nc`, yes

Maybe you can try to run PlayOnMac in command line:
$ cd /Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/
./playonmac
See what error appears

Same error as before, but at least with some more console output:
% cd /Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/
% ./playonmac

Turns out, I somehow uninstalled node.js. Reinstalling node fixes everything, though I had no clue from the error message.
I might consider opening a PR to add a new warning message instead of the somewhat misleading NetCat error that fires after 7 `env: node: No such file or directory` errors. Would that be somewhere under https://github.com/PhoenicisOrg/scripts ?

Yes sure! (github.com/PlayOnLinux/POL-POM-4/)
This error looks very strange though
