erlang@23.1_1: Erlang has newer version that supports Apple Silicon

[shibukawa (Yoshiki Shibukawa)]

Current macports have Erlang@23.1_1, but the latest one is 23.2. This is important version because it is the first version that supports AppleSilicon.

In the future, please add the port maintainer(s) to Cc (port info --maintainers erlang), if any.

Can we know the status of this? Thanks. I'm not sure where to look if it is documented somewhere on GitHub.

For now I'm having to rely on some working coexistence of Homebrew's RabbitMQ and everything else from MacPorts

current version is 24.1: erlang seems to have been updated (port version: 23.1, new version: 24.1) @ci42: can you please provide an update here as whether you have tried to update the port and what your plan is regarding this issue?

@amalija-ramljak if you want to try and update the Portfile yourself and see whether it works, that would be of course great. If it does, you can open a PR with the suggested change.

Hello,

erlang build fails on Apple Silicon. Port is still using erlang 23.1
