Installing on Big Sur and Monterrey

Hi! When trying to install in Big Sur and Monterrey I got the following error. It works for me on Mojave.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/fercozzi/tools/bin/fontdiffenator", line 11, in <module>
    load_entry_point('fontdiffenator==0.9.12', 'console_scripts', 'fontdiffenator')()

    raise RuntimeError('Freetype library not found')
RuntimeError: Freetype library not found

I tried installing Freetype via brew and freetype-py via pip, both cases returns that freetype is already installed.

Thanks

Hello. I have the same issue. Diffenator doesn't work for me on the M1 Mac, Monterey 12.5.1.
