Hey, I’m trying to play with pijul! I first tried installing normally (with cargo install pijul --version "~1.0.0-alpha"), then under rosetta, but in both cases I get this error:

error: could not compile `pijul` due to previous error
error: failed to compile `pijul v1.0.0-beta.2`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `/var/folders/qv/h_703px137jfv8jpr328rgx00000gn/T/cargo-installkp5fWn`

Any idea how to resolve this? It seems like cargo isn’t building the executable under rosetta, but I’m not sure how to fix that.

Edit: Since I have nix I managed to install it with nix-env -i pijul, so no urgency

If you are using brew you can install the zstd formulae:

brew install zstd

Also you probably need to install xxhash as well:

brew install xxhash

I recommend you to install both: brew install zstd xxhash

Otherwise, you probably would need to compile and install from source.

After installing both packages, I was able to successfully compile pijul on M1 (without Rosetta), so I hope your installation succeeds as well.

I have made a homebrew package. Open a github issue whenever an updated version is needed. brew install hybras/tap/pijul

Today (18/6/2022), I was able to install using the instructions only
