Building Silo on arm64 (M1) architecture #329

Open holm10 opened 1 year ago

holm10 commented 1 year ago

When building on M1 chip, ./configure raises "Invalid configuration arm64-apple-darwin20.0.0': machinearm64-apple' not recognized" errors when checking build and host systems.

Managed to build when declaring "build_alias=x86_64-apple-darwin" and "host_alias=x86_64-apple-darwin"

Not surprised by this...Silo's configure is quite old. Its been updated in 4.11RC. We've also started (though not yet completed) a CMake option there as well. Any chance you could try one of those options?
