Erlang 26.2.1 fails on M1 Sonoma 14.1.2 - linker command failed

[belgoros]

I got previous version (25) installed without problems:

asdf list elixir
 *1.15.6-otp-25
  1.16.0-otp-25
➜  ~ asdf list erlang
 *25.3.2.6

I tried all the options provided in README as follows:

export KERL_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS="--disable-debug --without-javac"

but it sill fails with:

asdf install erlang 26.2.1
asdf_26.2.1 is not a kerl-managed Erlang/OTP installation

Seems like the issue is in OTP, should be fixed in the next patch release: erlang/otp#7987

A tiny note to the above issue, - I installed with no problems Erlang 26.2.1 on a fresh & new MacBook Pro M2. So, not sure if uninstalling the previously installed Erlang version(s) could fix that and if M2 installation differs from the M1 chip's one. I also tried the options suggested at the elixirforum without success.

check if you have binutils installed with brew, and if you do, uninstall them.
