[jby]

Be sure to read the FAQ before submitting a new issue.

General description of bug:

• What happened: fastfetch crashes every time I try to run it on an intel-based mac
• What should happen: It shouldn't crash
• Fastfetch version used: fastfetch 2.29.0 (x86_64)
• Did it work in an older version: No
• Where did you get the binary: Homebrew
• Does this issue still occur in the latest dev build?

Often helpful information:

Screenshot:

Output of fastfetch -c ci.jsonc --format json:

$ fastfetch -c ci.jsonc --format json
zsh: segmentation fault  fastfetch -c ci.jsonc --format json

Output of fastfetch --list-features:

fastfetch --list-features
threads
vulkan
imagemagick7
chafa
zlib
sqlite3

If fastfatch crashed or froze

If fastfetch behaves incorrectly on shell startup

It doesn't matter if run from commandline or in .zshrc I see this on 2 different intel-Macs, but not on my arm-Macs where it works as expected.

I do have an old Intel Macbook Pro and it works fine for me.

Please provide the stack trace for debugging:

1. Download https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/actions/runs/11789792806 and extract it
2. lldb /path/to/extracted/fastfetch
3. run. When it crashes, bt full.
4. Paste the text here.

fastfetch 2.29 (from brew) works fine on my macOS 13.5.2 x86_64 version. So the problem may be related to macOS 14 x86_64 version.

I have 4 mac machines, macOS are 10.13.6、11.7.10、12.7.6、15.1.1 ，the first 3 are x86_64 CPU. They all works with fastfetch -c all with 2.30.1. Version 2.29.0 should work as well because I usually keep upgrading fasfetch.

1413 suggests fastfetch works fine in 14.7.1 x86_64. As we still got no response from @jby I will close this issue for now. One can reopen it with stack trace uploaded
