Issue installing cbc on MacBook with Apple M2 Max chip

[alessandrozocca]

I encountered an issue while trying to install cbc on my MacBook with Apple M2 Max chip.

After running the command

brew tap coin-or-tools/coinor
brew install coin-or-tools/coinor/cbc

I get the following error message

This is strange. The missing symbol is related to the third-party package GLPK, which can be linked when it is found on the system. It looks like when Clp was built, it included a header from a CoinUtils library that had been built with GLPK, but Cgl is now trying to link to a Clp library that is expecting GLPK support, but also to a different CoinUtils library that doesn't have such support. So somehow, you have (or had) multiple CoinUtils libraries lying around.

One possibility is that you are mixing and matching libraries from the recipes in core with libraries from the recipes in coin-or-tool/coinor. I would first try uninstalling everything in the Cbc stack and make sure that you also delete any libraries that were installed with the recipes in core. Then just install Cbc and let it find all the dependencies. Hopefully, that will fix things up. Is it possible that you built CoinUtils from source on your own at some point?

Anyway, hopefully, this give you enough to go on.

Thanks for the input. I follow your advice and did a clean install, but I got a different error message:

[pmaldona]

Same issue, any fix for this?

[tkralphs]

Sorry, lost track of this, looks like an issue with Mumps. @dpo, any ideas? If nothing else, Mumps is an optional dependency, so we could leave it out.

[dpo]

Could you please post a link to a gist with the full logs?

This should be reported a separate issue, as it has nothing to do with the original issue. It's also probably not really related to the homebrew recipe per se and should be reported/discussed in the DyLP project. In fact, there is already an extensive discussion of this exact issue over there: coin-or/DyLP/issues/18.

Unless you are trying to install DyLP specifically, you probably don't need it. If you want help, please open a discussion or separate issue about this.
