:(

Try to build with ./configure and make instead

Got some error as this

Side note, I can reproduce that issue with ./configure and make as well.

Side note, I can reproduce that issue with ./configure and make as well.

that would be strange as configure uses libtool which is supposed to have this bug fixed since 2002

please make sure you're not compiling with --with-bot (see #1374 )

otherwise provide complete logs

[emilengler]

I run into the same issue.

[ailin-nemui]

can you try this:

meson-macos-ar.ini

# manual workaround for meson bug https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/11165
# usage: meson --native-file ./meson-macos-ar.ini

[binaries]
ar = ['/bin/sh', '-c', 'ar=${AR:-ar}; ranlib=${RANLIB:-ranlib -c -}; case "x$1" in xcsr*) $ar "$@" && $ranlib "$2" || exit $?; ;; *) exec $ar "$@"; ;; esac;', 'ar']

then

meson --native-file ./meson-macos-ar.ini ...
