Description
This issue is opened for people who may encounter the same problem in future.
I'm using MacOS 13.4 on M2 Pro
I followed the instructions in the wiki pages to disable SIP and install yabai. When I run `sudo yabai --load-sa`, I got the error in title.
I solved by running `sudo visudo /etc/sudoers` and add the line
```
Defaults env_keep += "TERMINFO"
```
One thing to note that when I install yabai on MacOS 12.7.1 (Intel), I didn't have to do this.

Research direction
Reproduce `sudo yabai --load-sa` on macOS 13.4 with an M2 Pro and compare it with the reported macOS 12.7.1 Intel behavior. Inspect the wiki instructions and `/etc/sudoers`, including the `TERMINFO` workaround, then determine whether a yabai or documentation change is needed.
