Mac M1 Pro Build Issues

[Eric Wolf]

I’m trying to build from source. I installed Qt 5.11.2 specifically as mentioned in the instructions, as well as all the dependencies and whatnot. Here’s my issue:

 % qmake main.pro CONFIG+=release && make                   
cd Builds/QtCreator/Ember/ && ( test -e Makefile || /Users/ericwolf/Qt/5.11.2/clang_64/bin/qmake -o Makefile /Users/ericwolf/fractorium/Builds/QtCreator/Ember/Ember.pro CONFIG+=release ) && /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/make -f Makefile

I’m not sure if this is a Fractorium issue or a TBB issue. I’m not even sure where TBB lives on my system, maybe the makefile assumes incorrectly?

This is all on a fresh MacOS install.

I think this is where the file(s) live(s)

/System/Volumes/Data/opt/homebrew/Cellar/tbb/2021.4.0/include/tbb/parallel_for.h

Okay so I think the Ember build files are looking in /usr/local/ and /usr/include but all homebrew stuff is in /opt/homebrew since M1

Glad to hear you got your new system, it shouldn’t be too much work to get this to build.

tbb is Intel Threading Building Blocks. In linux, you install it as a dev package, which will install the libs and the headers. In Windows, you have to manually download the source and build it, which the makedeps.bat script does.

For Apple, I am not sure if it’s included with the OS, or you need to install it as a package. Regardless, it sounds like you’ve found the location of it.

I think you will need to edit the paths in Builds\QtCreator\defaults.pri to point to the proper place.

If you can get it all working, then make a pull request, that’d be nice.
