Installing Polymake on Mac OS Monterey (M1 chip) using rosetta
Posted: 24 Sep 2022, 12:41
Hey polymake folks!
For everyone having issues installing Polymake on mac OS Monterey with an m1 chip, it might be worth giving Apple's own Rosetta 2 a shot.
It enables using apps built for Intel Macs (further information here)). It can be installed via the command
You can then open your favorite Terminal in "Rosetta-mode" by right clicking -> Get Info -> Open using Rosetta.
It might also be beneficial to have one "proper" Terminal and one "Rosetta-Terminal". (For further setup ideas see here).
Using this, resolve the dependencies using Homebrew in the Rosetta-terminal and compile polymake this way (it then also works from the normal terminal).
It might also be worth trying if the brew tap works using Rosetta!
I hope this post helps some people and happy polymaking everyone!
