Can't build on M1, please help

[Rizhiy]

I want stream my webcam to KVS, this repo was one of recommendations I came across.
I tried to build following the instructions, but got an error.
I don't develop in C/C++, so don't really understand what is missing.

I'm on Apple M1 Pro, macOS Monterey 12.6.3

Hi @Rizhiy,

Please try the develop branch. We have recently bumped the OpenSSL version in #950 to allow for M1 support.

I tried building on develop and I get a different error now:

Not sure what changed, but after running the command second time it succeeded.

Glad you were able to get it to work!

Created an issue to track: #978
