Hi Stefan,

OK, glad to hear you got it working, and thanks for the explanation.

It is definitely not the intention that the Xcode developer tools need to be installed.  I do have those installed, but still `fabio` did install from a "whl" (packaged binary), not a "tar.gz" (a source code kit) for me.  

I think this is probably not related to ARM/M1 v Intel.  I think it is just whether the binary was expected to be built on the target machine or not.

Anyway, thanks  - that might help someone else who gets stuck too.
Cheers,

found the reason:

- you need command line developer tools installed 

- these have to be up to date

If this is the case, the install via script works also on ARM Macs ….; the Intel-Mac, which I tested, had an updated version installed. 

best regards

Hi Stefan, 

Sorry for the trouble.  As it turns out, I am writing this on a Macbook M1 running 13.3.1.

I think the "GetLarch.sh" script should work (downloading https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xraypy/xraylarch/master/installers/GetLarch.sh 
and running with `sh GetLarch.sh` in a Terminal).

For me, that is using fabio version 2023.4.1.  

Does that work for you?  If not, can you send the log file (GetLarch.log)?

Dear all,

from binary package:
can’t write to system partition 

by script and by anaconda I got the following message back:

Collecting fabio
  Using cached fabio-2023.4.1.tar.gz (724 kB)
  Installing build dependencies ... done
  Getting requirements to build wheel ... done
  Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml) ... error
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

System ist 13.3.1, tried to install the newest version completely from scratch, because the update killed my larch version ….

best regards

Stefan
