OSCAR for Apple silicon M2 - HappySailor - 09-15-2023

Hello OSCAR guru's,

When trying to install OSCAR 1.5, I get a notice that I need to install Rosetta because OSCAR is made for Intel processors.

Of course I can do that, but is there (going to be) a version that will run native on Apple Silicon?

Thanks,

Charan

The difficulty we face is finding a user who is or can become a developer.. They have to have the Apple M2 computer, and obtain Apples Developer package. Then you have to Download the required QT packages, which may require building them from source - not a small project. Then you can start on OSCAR, a less daunting project. Once it compiles and links, you have to figure out the packaging requirements, to build a package that others can download and install.

And that's why we don't have a native M2 OSCAR download.

Apple iOS uses “aps”. There are thousands of these possible on the homepage.

Happy Sailor,

I have a MacBook M2.  Has the Mac OSCAR APP download functioned on your M2?  Going okay?

I have an M2 Ultra Mac Studio. Thhe first time I tried to install Oscar 1.5, I got a similar notice about being unable to install. I tried again the next day, not doing anything different, and it worked fine. Go figure...
