Dear scottj,

Thank you for your interest in QDOAS and for reaching out.
Unfortunately the problem that you are experiencing is due to the fact that QDOAS is currently not supporting arm64. For MacOS, only intel architecture is supported.
We certainly intend to support arm64 and will work on it in the foreseeable future. In the meantime, I hope you will be able to find an alternative solution.

Kind regards,
Jeroen

Hi Scott,

meantime, I think you can create an x64 conda environment and run the existing qdoas package, by following the instructions here:

Let me know if that works, or if we can help you further.

Hi Scott,

in the mean time, we have set up osx-arm64 builds for qdoas as well. Please us know if any further issues pop up.

That is great to hear, I had it working on an older machine but now I’ll be able to use my new one. Thanks very much.
