Error during install of lzip on MacOS 10.11.6
You're logged in as an ordinary user which do not have write permissions for system folders like /usr/local/bin/.

Normally you'll run the last command like this:

sudo make install


This means that the "make install" command should be executed with administrative privileges - and thus having write permissions for system folders.

Alternatively you can rerun the configure command giving it a bindir that is inside your own home directory. Then you can install the binary to there, but you'll then have to specify full path to the binary every time you want to run it.
