Locally build the conda package in an OSX platform

Comment:

Hi, I wonder if you guys have any experience with regard to do a local build of the OSX-64 conda package? I have been using build-locally.py script to build the package for linux-64 on a linux machine and it worked fine. But if I tried to do the same thing on my MacOS laptop, I got the following error.

-- The C compiler identification is Clang 15.0.7
-- The CXX compiler identification is Clang 15.0.7
-- The Fortran compiler identification is GNU 12.3.0

  It fails with the following output:

Do you have xcode installed in your machine?

[xiki-tempula]

Yes, I think so

(base) zwu@OXFHCW936KX2W amber-feedstock % xcode-select --install  
xcode-select: error: command line tools are already installed, use "Software Update" in System Settings to install updates

[xiki-tempula]

Ok, apparently the OSX_SDK_DIR has to be absolute path
