Issue: Hi, please add a built for osx-arm64 architecture in python 3.9. Thanks for your great work, so far.

cheers, Markus

We can't build qt yet for osx-arm64 (https://github.com/conda-forge/qt-feedstock/pull/185). @isuruf is this even possible to do with a cross compile, or do we need to wait for native hardware?

It'll be quite hard to cross-compile qt itself.

I just realized there's a homebrew package of pyqt for osx-arm64, so I would have a workaround in the meantime.

I would still prefer to have a clean conda-forge installation for my data science projects, with the ability to flexibly change environments. So any effort to built for osx-arm64 in this feedstock would be hugely appreciated.

However, if there's to many underlying issues I completely understand, that there are more pressing matters. If I can do anything to contribute, let me know.

I already did clone the pyqt-feestock repo and tried python build-locally.py after installing docker . However, the build failed, because of some version conflicts with conda-build, while trying to build pyqt-sip. I didn't investigate further, because honestly the build-scripts for cross compiling are fairly complex and I don't understand what's going on.
