  Target Milestone: ---

HI, 
I'm trying to run Buildroot on Apple Silicon, I'm unable to do that since I'm
getting an error with linking the libraries.
After running 'make menuconfig' I'm getting an error 'Undefined symbols for
architecture arm64' (top of Attachment 2 for full log), I was able to solve it
by running 
'❯ cd output/build/buildroot-config'
'❯ /usr/local/bin/gcc -DCURSES_LOC="<curses.h>" -DLOCALE -DKBUILD_NO_NLS
-I/Users/jakubswistak/Desktop/lines2/buildroot-2022.11.1/output/build/buildroot-config
-DCONFIG_=\"\"

 -o
/Users/jakubswistak/Desktop/lines2/buildroot-2022.11.1/output/build/buildroot-config/mconf
-lncurses' - added '-lncurses' 
But later during the compilation 'make'
I'm getting another error with linking library (bottom of Attachment 2 for full
log) 

I'm using Apple M2 chip with gcc/g++ 12.2.0 installed via homebrew.

Buildroot should mostly work on apple silicon, I have an autobuilder running on
a M1 mac mini myself:
http://autobuild.buildroot.net/?submitter=James+Hilliard+%28asahi-mini%29

Are you using the arch based Asahi Linux(https://asahilinux.org/)?

Building on MacOS is unlikely to work, you really need to build on a Linux
machine. x86-64 naturally gets most testing, but conceptually it should work to
build on an arm64 Linux machine as well (except for the prebuilt external
toolchains and similar).

Yeah, buildroot needs a Linux based host OS, macOS isn't going to work. You
need to install something like Asahi Linux, a aarch64 virtual machine may also
work via qemu or something.
