Cannot install on macOS M1

[stefanocoretta]

Hi! I tried to install pynini on macOS 12.0.1 ARM with mini-forge, but there is no build for this architecture.

I tried to install from source, but it seems that OpenFst is not available either. I am trying now to install OpenFst from source, will update soon.

EDIT: Nope, it failed while installing, although it seems like a permission issue.

libtool: install: /opt/homebrew/bin/ginstall -c .libs/fstarcsort /usr/local/bin/fstarcsort
ginstall: cannot create regular file '/usr/local/bin/fstarcsort': Permission denied
make[3]: *** [install-binPROGRAMS] Error 1

Source installation is the only option except for:

• On non-Windows platforms that support Conda, there are high-quality packages available from conda-forge.
• On Linux x86_64 there is a binary wheel available.

Try installing with sudo? Or this could be something to do with Homebrew, which I don't command.

I would be happy to make binary wheels available for other platforms but I would need a volunteer to modify the Docker setup I use to make the Linux one.

Hi! Thanks, eventually I just installed full anaconda with home brew and things work fine now.

It might be something related to the brewed version of miniconda and miniforge. A friend has installed miniconda from the official binaries and didn't have this issue.
