libmongoc not defined

Hi, I'm trying to connect my app to my Mongo DB using Julia. I am finding next error and I've not found any reference yet. I hope you may have some clue

julia> client = Mongoc.Client()

I followed this instructions and then libmongoc appears installed in /opt/homebrew/lib, not sure if I need to symlink somewhere else so Pkg.add("Mongoc") could find it

@pptav0 when you report this kind of issues please provide as many details as possible, in particular about your operating system. By the fact you mention homebrew I presume you are on macOS, but what architecture? Is that ARM or Intel? In the former case this is a duplicate of #86

[pptav0]

Thank you for the reply. I checked duplicated issued and it worked. I am adding my system info for further reference.
