unable to enable add on on M1 Mac

This is the error I get when trying to enable the addon on Blender 3.0 (Apple silicon):

On Blender 2.93 I can enable the addon but none of the options show-up inside Blender, I can't choose RenderMan as a render engine or see any RenderMan stuff anywhere. This is the error when running Blender from the command line:

I'm on a MacStudio with Apple M1 Ultra running Ventura 13.3.1 (a)

@pallazola You cannot use the M1 version of Blender with RenderMan. You have to use the Intel version.

OK that will do it!
