I have now tried installing ubuntu via multipass on osx(mac m1) and installing xeus-octave from ( mamba) and source /dev version .

Mamba installation - xeus-octave package not available for arm architecture on ubuntu

Source - Failed to build package glad

I am now running out of option to run xeus-octave on mac. Appreciate any guidance to resolve above issue

Is your octave from conda-forge? Maybe it is an issue from the conda-forge recipe? https://github.com/conda-forge/octave-feedstock/issues/102 was an issue with the gui system. Maybe they didn't enable a flag for FreeType? as it mentions "Octave was built"
