However, it is failing when trying to install ogre I believe, with the following error:

I've seen other issues where gazebo can't be installed due to ogre issues:

• ogre1.9 - macOS 15.0 from source installation issues #2793
• gz-harmonic failing to build on macOS arm, due to ogre failure #2478

However those errors don't match mine exactly, so I wanted to open a new issue.

I tried install ogre2.3 with brew install ogre2.3 however that also gave me errors

I've put the logs from brew install gz-harmonic --verbose here: https://gist.github.com/r-bt/114dfc0952a043f95f406b72b734a2a9

can you confirm the boost version that you have installed? I'm guessing 1.86 since that's the latest version:

• https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/b/boost.rb#L11

Are there any brew doctor complaints?

Also, I see that you have freetype installed in /usr/local. Is that build from source? I would have expected that to be found in /opt/homebrew; that's a little suspicious

[r-bt]

@scpeters thanks for the quick reply

I'm using boost 1.86

$ brew info boost
==> boost: stable 1.86.0 (bottled), HEAD

I've attached my brew doctor log here: https://gist.github.com/r-bt/f86838aa2ece9d6dabe66d3d9180b441

I used to have brew running under Rosetta where I believe it installs to /usr/local I reinstalled freetype and now it's under /opt/homebrew

$ brew info freetype
==> freetype: stable 2.13.3 (bottled)
Software library to render fonts

However I get the same error when trying to install gz-harmonic

at the very end of this line, I see references to boost libraries in /usr/local

/usr/local/lib/libboost_thread-mt.a
/usr/local/lib/libboost_date_time-mt.a

try removing those as well

[r-bt]

Brilliant! I had boost installed under Rosetta brew, so I uninstalled that and it worked

[scpeters]

great; glad it's working now
