[QE-users] QE v.6.8 installation on M1 mac

[Viejay Ordillo]

Dear QE users,
I've been trying to install quantum espresso v.6.8 on my mac computer (M1
chip), but I keep getting errors along the process. Configuring with
*./configure
CPP="gcc -E" *was successful. However, when I tried to use *make all *command,
it threw me this error:
checking build system type... Invalid configuration
`aarch64-apple-darwin20.6.0': machine `aarch64-apple' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config/config.sub aarch64-apple-darwin20.6.0
failed
if test -d src/ ; then \
( cd src/ ; make ) ; fi
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `device_auxfunc_mod.o', needed by
`deviceXlib_mod.o'. Stop.
make[2]: *** [libsrc] Error 2
make[1]: *** [libcuda_devxlib] Error 2
make: *** [libcuda] Error 2
I found a similar case from QE mailing list threads (
https://www.mail-archive.com/users@lists.quantum-espresso.org/msg41460.html
<https://www.researchgate.net/deref/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mail-archive.com%2Fusers%40lists.quantum-espresso.org%2Fmsg41460.html>).
I followed the instructions from there but in the end, I was still met with
an error like this:
mpif90 -O3 -g -fallow-argument-mismatch -cpp -D__FFTW -D__MPI

There's no update from the thread until now. I don't know how to move
forward. I hope you could help with this. Thank you.
