ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64

[cgxxv]

I try to build the source code, and want to learn and debug the code following the doc. Failed to run ./scripts/build_dependencies.sh -p macos -a arm64. I have no idea for fixing this. Please help!

Can you post the entire log trace starting from when you called build_dependencies?

[osy]

Also include config.log from gettext build

[cgxxv]

config.log
build_dependencies.log

The steps are:

1. brew reinstall bison pkg-config gettext glib-utils libgpg-error nasm meson
2. export PATH=/usr/local/opt/bison/bin:/opt/homebrew/opt/bison/bin:$PATH
3. I use the python 3.9.20 installed by asdf, so I need to run source ~/.asdf/asdf.sh first, then exec asdf local python 3.9.20. So the python 3.9.20 will take effect at UTM directory. Then exec pip3 install six pyparsing
4. ./scripts/build_dependencies.sh -p macos -a arm64

All logs attached.

[osy]

Can you provide /Users/mac/Store/UTM/build-macOS-arm64/gettext-0.22.5/config.log?
