FlowUtils on mac aarch64 + python 3.11 about flowutils HOT 6 CLOSED

Great, actually that may be necessary, I have a note about upgrading pip for Mac in the FlowKit readme.

Hi Alex,

I haven't tested either library on Python 3.11, as there are several dependencies for FlowKit that do not yet support 3.11. That said, FlowUtils should be easier to get up and running. From your error message:

(mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'x86_64', need 'arm64'))

Looks like you may have the x86 version of Python. Maybe brew is operating under Rosetta like in this SO post?

I'm quite confident I use arm version, but here is what file says:

$ file `which python`
/Users/axelr/pll/venv311/bin/python: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64

I've also checked gcc, it is universal, so arm version should normally be used (same for g++):

file `which gcc`   
/usr/bin/gcc: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [x86_64:Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64] [arm64e:Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64e]
/usr/bin/gcc (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
/usr/bin/gcc (for architecture arm64e): Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64e

LMK if you want me to check something else. From source it looks like it should build native version

Hmm, is pip caching a previous wheel version. Can you clear the pip cache or better yet try again with a fresh venv?

Setting up a Python 3.11.1 environment using pyenv, I was able to get FlowUtils to install on a M1 Mac using this command:

pip install --compile flowutils

My machine is using clang as the compiler and not gcc.

Does that work for you?

I've created a new env, and this time it worked.

The only thing changed: this time I updated pip before installing things, but that's unlikely the reason.
