Support for macOS on arm64

[tjeremie]

Describe the bug IGraphM doesn't seem compatible with the most recent version of Mathematica, see error below when I try installing it. Maybe it is because I am on the Apple Silicon (M1 chip) version of Mathematica.

Error "The paclet !(\"IGraphM\") was successfully installed, but it will \ not be available in this session because it is not compatible with \ the currently running version of the Wolfram system."

Version information

• IGraph/M version: v0.5.1
• Mathematica version: 12.3.1 Mac OS X ARM (64-bit)
• OS version: macOS 11.6

Sorry about the late response. I am aware of this, and an ARM-compatible release is in the works. Currently I have little free time, so the next release is behind schedule. I will close this issue once the new release is out.

[szhorvat]

Until then, please use the Intel version of Mathematica to be able to use IGraph/M. Note that Mathematica itself lacks a few features on ARM.

Hi @szhorvat, I was wondering if there is an update about this issue. Thanks for this awesome package :)

[szhorvat]

@julioparra Thanks for the reminder. Can you please send me an email? I'll try to create a testing version for you.

@szhorvat Same issue on "13.0.0 for Mac OS X ARM (64-bit) (December 3, 2021)"

Hi Szabolcs,

Sure, I’d be happy to test.

I’m using Mathematica 13.0.0.

Best,

Julio

Hi @szhorvat, I was wondering if you had the chance to create that testing version. Thanks!

[antononcube]

Is your time on fixing this quantifiable with money? (E.g. dollar amount per hour.)

[szhorvat]

Can you offer a full-time faculty job? Applying for those is taking up most of my time now ...

[antononcube]

:) I see. Well, unfortunately my academia relations are only through conferences or meetup talks...

Hello everyone,

I prepared a rough pre-release with Apple Silicon support. You can download it here:

https://cloud.mpi-cbg.de/index.php/s/0vr04MnzdApEoiK

Please test it, and give feedback (works or doesn't work). If you have the time, you can try to run the test suite as well (downloadable from the same link). Feedback is welcome not only from Apple Silicon users, but also Linux and Windows (especially people using older Linux distros).

Keep in mind that this is a pre-release and it might be a bit rough around the edges.

Minimum supported Mathematica version is 11.0.

Raspberry Pi support is not included in this paclet (it will be re-added in the final release).

[szhorvat]

Please do test interruptability, if possible.

For example:

Needs["IGraphM`"]

g = IGErdosRenyiGameGNM[50, 200, DirectedEdges -> True]
IGFeedbackArcSet[g]

This should take a very long time to complete. You can press Command-. or Alt-. to interrupt the calculation. It may take 1-2 seconds until interruption kicks in, but it should not require more than one press of Command-..

Hi @szhorvat,

Thank you so much for the update! I tried installing it using

Needs["PacletManager`"] PacletInstall["~/Downloads/IGraphM/IGraphM-0.5.90.paclet"]

and it gives the following error:

I am using Mathematica 13.0.0

In[1]:= $Version Out[1]= "13.0.0 for Mac OS X ARM (64-bit) (December 3, 2021)"

[rohitn]

Hi @szhorvat,

I see the same error

$Version "13.0.1 for Mac OS X ARM (64-bit) (January 28, 2022)"

[szhorvat]

Please re-download and try again.

[flaviolpp]

Hi @szhorvat,

I re-downloaded the package just now, and I am still getting the same error.

[szhorvat]

@flaviolpp Please uninstall the old one first, then re-install again. I did not bump the version number for this change, so a simple PacletInstall (without a prior PacletUninstall) will not reinstall it. Lesson learned, I'll bump the version for each new prerelease as I share them.

[flaviolpp]

I was not able to uninstall it with the PacletUninstall. It says Mathematica cannot find IGraphM. Instead, I deleted the paclet manually from "~/Library/Mathematica/Paclets/Repository/", which I believe achieves the same goal. Am I correct? Not sure Mathematica registers the paclet elsewhere ...

In any case, I did it and it returned the same error after PacletInstall.

[szhorvat]

Sorry about that, there was a typo in the accepted SystemID value. Please try again.

[flaviolpp]

There you go

All worked fine. :) Also, this one

went without problems, the operation was aborted on the first attempt.

[rohitn]

Hi @szhorvat

Thanks for the update.

DeleteDirectory[
 FileNameJoin@{$UserBasePacletsDirectory, "Repository", 
   "IGraphM-0.5.90"}, DeleteContents -> True]

PacletInstall["~/Downloads/IGraphM-0.5.91.paclet"]

All tests pass.

g = IGErdosRenyiGameGNM[50, 200, DirectedEdges -> True]
IGFeedbackArcSet[g]

Abort worked.

Awesome. Thanks a lot!

[julioparra]

Working like a charm!

Thanks again!

[szhorvat]

Thanks for all the feedback!

Please just use it as normal, or explore the new features based on the changelog, and if anything seems off, let me know. This'll help us reach to the final release more quickly.

[szhorvat]

A release is out now, closing this.

[szhorvat]

Please do test it and report any issues, no matter how minor. I'll try to fix them for 0.6.1.
