I originally asked this question on the ess-help list, I now think it belongs here.
emacs 21.1, specifically Vincent Goulet's distribution, crashes regularly on my Mac M1. It looks to me like it is using the intel compilation through rosetta instead of the arm compilation. Vincent's distribution is based on https://emacsformacosx.com/emacs-builds/Emacs-27.1-1-universal.dmg which contains lrwxr-xr-x 1 rmh staff 16 Aug 12 2020 bin -> bin-x86_64-10_10 drwxr-xr-x 6 rmh staff 204 Aug 12 2020 bin-x86_64-10_10 drwxr-xr-x 6 rmh staff 204 Aug 12 2020 bin-x86_64-10_14 The crash report says My March 1 crash report said > Process: Emacs-x86_64-10_14 [1112] > Path: > /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs-x86_64-10_14 > Identifier: org.gnu.Emacs > Version: Version 27.1 (9.0) > Code Type: X86-64 (Translated) > Parent Process: ??? [1] > Responsible: Emacs-x86_64-10_14 [1112] which I interpret as saying that it ran the intel compilation > Responsible: Emacs-x86_64-10_14 [1112] translated through rosetta. It seems not to have run the arm compilation, even though the link rwxr-xr-x 1 rmh staff 16 Aug 12 2020 bin -> bin-x86_64-10_10 looks to me like it should have been running bin-x86_64-10_10 Is my interpretation correct? and if so how do I get the program to run the native M1 compilation. _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
