having same issue, workaround was to hardcode the path in the .metal file which is really not a workaround, came looking for the same issue, hopefully will be sorted soon

I have the same issue too.

I am getting this error when trying to make libwhisper.so -j on MacBook Pro M1. See also the similar issue in llama.cpp. The same fix works for me.

Reposting the commands for the link above here: (convert to .metallib and ensure this file is visible to your binary)

xcrun -sdk macosx metal    -O3 -c ggml-metal.metal -o ggml-metal.air
xcrun -sdk macosx metallib        ggml-metal.air   -o default.metallib
