me too, I use it in arm64

Looks like solution for your issue as well:
#9391

[tripplegreen]

@AskAlexSharov - duplicate #9391

[ArielTM]

Don't see how #9391 solves this. tried running make evm and the result is the same.

Still can't compile v2.58.0 -

bash# CC=clang-12 CXX=clang++-12 CFLAGS="-O3" make erigon

@ArielTM , which Linux flavour/version do you use?
There's probably a bug in this script on your system.
Could you run it and see what it outputs using this command?

./turbo/silkworm/silkworm_lib_path.sh

Also if you could show the output of go env it might help to understand.

Also if you could search with find / erigontech to find where did it actually downloaded go: downloading github.com/erigontech/silkworm-go v0.12.0 (since is not found in /root/go/pkg/mod, I assume that it is downloaded at some other location).

@ArielTM Thanks for the update.
I got confused, because the issue title was amd64, but your system is in fact arm64.
Unfortunately ARM is not supported by this script. We'll need to update our Makefile to take this into account.

A workaround is to build with nosilkworm tag using this command:

make BUILD_TAGS=nosqlite,noboltdb,nosilkworm erigon

[ArielTM]

My bad @battlmonstr . I'm terribly sorry. Indeed I meant arm64 🤦
