I'm trying to build and run the icetray framework on an M1 Mac.

Hi, I’m trying to build icetray on an M1 Mac.

I’ve followed the step-by-step guide at https://docs.icecube.aq/icetray/main/projects/cmake/supported_platforms/osx.html, but I’m running into troubles with boost.

I’ve installed boost-python3 via brew bundle and I’ve double-checked that it’s there.

The problem we saw was that homebrew installed python3.9, but boost_python3 linked against python 3.10.

It seems, I'm missing opencl locally (#8), which is not supported by icetray on M1 architectures, yet.

See: https://github.com/icecube/icetray/blob/main/cmake/tools/opencl.cmake

This install method can still be used to successfully build steamshovel.
