Use macos 14 (apple arm) in CI #2534

Closed maxnoe closed 2 months ago

maxnoe commented 2 months ago

The macos-latest (currently macos 12 on x86_64 for us, but being transitioned to macos 14) is giving transient failures relatively often that seem unrelated to anything we do here.

Trying to switch to the macos 14 image that's using apple arm.

pytables doesn't seem to offer an arm wheel, installation from source is failing due to missing system dependencies.

@maxnoe Looks like github remembers a test called "macos-latest" should run despite it not longer showing up in the CI file, not sure if this can be safely ignored or not.

Yes, it's required in the branch protection settings.

Will change that as soon as we agree that this is fine.
