libexiv2.dylib' (no such file) #94

I get this error when trying to import Image from the library.

I have Version: 2.5.0 of pyexiv2, and python 3.8. I'm on a MBP with Apple M1 Pro chip if that matters.

Hi. When you execute pip install pyexiv2, it will try to download the pyexiv2 and exiv2 compilation files. However, both exiv2 and pyexiv2 are compiled using Github Action for amd64 architecture only. So, you need git clone exiv2 and pyexiv2, then compile them manually. See pyexiv2/lib.

Although I wanted to avoid the compile time for users, I didn't have a trusted ARM computer. Maybe Github Action will offer one in the future.
