I have been using M1 macbook for almost half a year and initially, I installed many packages under rosetta 2 and many natively (I assume). I run my terminal under rosetta 2 but whenever I install any package using brew, I do it using arch -arm64 brew install <pkg-name>. Now, I have no clue if all this time, I had been installing the packages under rosetta 2 or natively.
Anyways, now I want to install the native versions of all the packages and software since now, most of them are available natively. Please help me to figure out how can I do this. All I want to do is remove everything and then install then natively without rosetta 2.
Some of the things which I want to reinstall are:-
Homebrew
Mini conda and the python libraries.
gcc and g++
MySQL
Node and npm
Also, in future, if I want to install anything natively then how should I do it?
If you used Homebrew to install all of the packages, try to uninstall them as you where using brew. Then uninstall the x86 version of Homebrew
And for the native versions, install the new Homebrew with the ARM terminal. And reinstall everything.

I am building a project on Mac. It ends with
glibtoolize: command not found.
I don't find any instructions for installing glibtool and glibtoolize. All search results talks about installing libtool, which I already installed on my Mac.
Anyone know how this works? (I already installed the lated xcode, but no glibtool in my system.)
Install Homebrew (http://brew.sh). And then I guess brew install libtool.
I need to know How to install System Python 2.7 on my Mac. This is because, I unknowingly uninstalled it (I thought I was removing the Python I downloaded from Python.org)
I followed this Stack Overflow answer, and after the damage had been done, I read the comments telling me NOT TO do that.
The current reason I am wanting to install System Python 2.7 is because it is needed to install PyGame. Below is a screenshot of what I am facing when trying to install PyGame:
I recommend installing packages on OS X using Homebrew as it keeps everything you install in one place. Allowing you to upgrade or uninstall easily and not needing to remember how or where you installed it.
Once it is installed you simply type brew install python in your terminal. This will install Python 2.7.10 and it will be available at /usr/local/bin/python.
The only supported way to restore the system Python framework on macOS is to reinstall the operating system. It is treated as a component of the core operating system, so there is no way to selectively reinstall it.
I recently installed Octave using the binary installer found on this site: http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_MacOS_X
I then tried to install the control package using 'pkg install -forge control' but it gave me the error 'pkg: error running `make' for the control package.'. I have gone through most of the threads regarding this error but with no success.
I then tried to use MacPorts to install the control package, I followed the instructions on the wiki page above with some help from this thread: Installing general package in octave has error. I believe I succeeded installing the packages because I can see them in the folder tree for Octave and MacPorts says it is installed when using the console.
The problem is that when i run some code in Octave it cannot build as it doesn't know that I have installed any additional packages. Using 'pkg list' in Octave it says that no additional packages installed. I feel like I need to link the two together but I don't know how?
I'll happily explain more if I need to and I hope you can help me out.
Many Thanks,
Sam.
You cannot "link the two together" (assuming you mean the binary version of octave and the MacPorts version).
If you have packages installed via MacPorts for the MacPorts version of octave, then they will only be available from the the MacPorts version of octave, so make sure you are running that.
Otherwise, figure out how to install the package with the octave binary version. It seems you require a build environment for this, but installing the command line tools (which you must have done for MacPorts to work) might have already solved this problem.
It seems to be a problem with gfortan compiler built-in with Octave. To solve this you should install an external fortran compiler.
Try this:
Install Xcode and command line tools for Xcode
Download and install a fortran compiler for MacOS, for example: http://coudert.name/software/gfortran-6.1-ElCapitan.dmg
Change the fortran compiler path in your octave, to this if you installed the compiler that I suggested in point number 2 you only must to open Octave and type: setenv('F77', '/usr/local/gfortran/bin/gfortran').
And Enjoy Octave for MacOS
Octave with control package 3.0.0 on MacOS
You haven't provided enough information for a precise diagnostic, but I had the same error message (and a few more), and re-installing octave from source solved it; see this link for more info, but essentially you can do it by running brew reinstall --build-from-source octave.
I have a GTK+ Application (ready with Autotools) which i have developed on my Linux box. Now I need to port this one to OSX.
I have successfully installed jhbuild, which in turn installed GTK+ and stuff on the Mac (10.5.8)
I just don't know what to do next. Trying to ./configure && make && make install (on my app copied to the Mac) fails since pkg-config is not installed on the Mac.
Do I really need to write a jhbuild moduleset in order to compile this app?
I need two libraries as well: libxml2 and libsoup-2.4. Will jhbuild tae care for integrating them...?!
My question now is: What is the simplest way to port a GTK+ Application to OSX and is there a tutorial or how-to on it?
I recommend installing Homebrew which is a command line package manager for mac. Once installed open terminal and run brew install pkg-config to install pkg-config then brew install gtk+ and/or brew install gtk+3 to install gtk+ 2 or 3 respectively.
After that is done you should be able to compile with your makefiles.
Are you sure that jhbuild installed GTK? Did you do
jhbuild bootstrap
jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap
jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-core
as instructed on the "GTK OSX Building" page? If you did this, then pkg-config is definitely installed, because those packages wouldn't have built without it.
Are you building your application from within the jhbuild environment? i.e. did you do
jhbuild shell
before trying to build your application?
Isn't using jhbuild a bit overkill ? Wouldn't a Mac OS X GTK bundle from gtk.org be enough ? I think it provides pkg-config as the Win32 version provides it. Jhbuild is interesting if you have tons of dependencies to build, or want to build GTK yourself, but from what I understand, you just want to port a GTK application...
I want the latest version of openmpi. I like to use macports because it is easy to install, uninstall, and upgrade software. I have installed the latest mpi via building from source, but no one seems to be able to get it to build properly with macports. There is always a build error. There are tickets (and you can see the logs at ), but they seem to be collecting dust and it seems strange that no one had found a solution.
I have tried uninstalling the built in version (I know, openmpi says not to do that--but it works fine if I reinstall it--even in a different directory), but I still the same build errors. I also tried with different gcc.
Does anyone know what is so difficult about getting openmpi via macports?
sudo port install openmpi
worked for me
