Conda package for osx-arm64?

[peanutfun]

I cannot install pyfes because the package is only available for osx-64 architecture, but not osx-arm64. Unfortunately, this issue is obscured by the error message, which always reports that the package cannot be found:

$ mamba install pyfes -c fbriol

Looking for: ['pyfes']

Could not solve for environment specs
The following package could not be installed
└─ pyfes does not exist (perhaps a typo or a missing channel).

Since Apple switched to the arm64 architecture for its computers, there is a growing number of users that require software built for this architecture. Are there any plans to release pyfes packages compatible to arm64 on conda?

Any updates on this issue? We would be very glad incorporate the FES14 tide model in our teaching material, but currently this Mac osx-arm64 issue is breaking our build.

I found this information on cross-compiling packages for conda-forge, but I am not familiar enough with neither the setup of this repository nor conda-forge to come up with a PR: https://conda-forge.org/blog/2020/10/29/macos-arm64/

[FlorisCalkoen]

I'm afraid the same holds for me. I'll see if I can do a little read up in the next days. Also I contacted someone I know at CNES to ask who is currently managing the PyFES builds. From somebody else I heard rumors that they are preparing a PyFES22 library, which is supposed to be more robust.

This question is out of date. Please use the most recent version of this software. You can install it from Conda. The ARM package should be available soon.

The new version of pyfes on osx/arm64 is available on conda-forge: https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pyfes

conda install -c conda-forge pyfes works as expected for Python 3.10+. Thanks a lot for the update @fbriol!
