unable to run the example

[vyorkin]

I'm on the latest Mac OS X. Here is what've tried so far:

• $ git clone https://github.com/slashmili/ex_syslogger.git
• $ cd ex_syslogger
• $ mix deps.get
• $ cd examples/example1
• $ mix deps.get
• $ iex -S mix
• iex(1)> Example1.run

I'll paste the error as is:

@vyorkin I fixed the dependency list and it works now

BTW probably you won't be able to see the log in OS X syslog. I'm not sure what's the problem but since El Capitan, I can not log anything to OS X syslog. I tried syslog library in C and python and it was the same.

thank you very much @slashmili !
