I’ll give my own instructions another go and see if can reproduce…

What version of python/pip are you using? IIRC you need to use python 3

Updates:

  1. If you followed the steps verbatim the conda installation step was incorrect - I have amended!
  2. Just noticed your error is regarding not having cmake, adding some env setup steps for this now! You need to install this brew install cmake

I’ll check again installing cmake
Question: why are you using /Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-x86_64.sh instead of /Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-arm64.sh ?

Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-x86_64.sh is for "pre-M1" macs, e.g. I use a MacBook Air 2017 which uses an Intel chip.

Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-arm64.sh is for Apple M1 😄

I was confused because you use apple-silicon-mps-support branch and I thought you had a M1 cpu. Anyway now it's working for me, thanks
