[AffinityGH]

Running into the same issue with an M1 Macbook Air.

[Jimwaga]

Having the same issues. I tried

1. Duplicating Terminal and in Get info, added Open with Rosetta 2 -> didn't get Traceback errors
2. Installed separate brew, and created alias by moving it to '/usr/local/homebrew' -> generated traceback

Using M1 Macbook Air

[christopheraramos]

Same issue. M1 Macbook Pro with a fresh Big Sur 11.6 install.

[mickan921]

Same issue here... Macbook Air M1
Are there any workaround to this problem?

[aeroyouth]

Same here! What can I do next?

[dlech]

It looks like #79 has been proposed to fix this.

[ThomasDebrunner]

Yes, this issue is caused by running on Apple Silicon (M1). The recommended and supported way is to use rosetta emulation as described in https://docs.px4.io/v1.12/en/dev_setup/dev_env_mac.html.

PR #80 should allow installing the all natively on M1 though

[edbyy]

I still had this problem on 12.4 even after following the recommended steps of using Rosetta emulation. What finally worked for me was using iTerm and running all of the commands (including installing homebrew again) using the arch -x86_64 prefix.

Confirmed this worked for me as well.
