[Mac M1] Brew install error "The x86_64 architecture is required for this software"

[pqkluan]

I tried to install mint-lang on Mac mini m1 and encountered the following error:

$ brew install mint-lang
==> Installing mint-lang from mint-lang/mint-lang
llvm@9: The x86_64 architecture is required for this software.
Error: An unsatisfied requirement failed this build.

I googled the issue but found no related topic for this bug. Any advice?

You can build it from source for now, or you can use the Docker image, which is at mint-lang/mint-docker

Thank you @nailuj29gaming, I'll try to build it from source.

This will be fixed once Crystal is supported natively https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/issues/10237 (keeping this issue open until it is supported)

Yup, I tried to build from source but it require Crystal lang (which also throw the same error). I'm haven't try the docker image yet, since I feel it's been too much a hassle for trying mint-lang at the moment.
