[Build Issue] Linker error while trying to build osrm on Mac M1

[bb-santoshbanerjee]

I'm running into the following Linker issue, but not sure about the correct way to go about fixing it.
Any pointers to get this resolved?

I guess you use Boost 1.81? You can downgrade as a workaround (or use Conan via -DENABLE_CONAN=ON)

Thanks for the suggestions, however I seemed to run into a bunch of other issues on Mac. So I just created an Ubuntu 22.04 VM on UTM (on my mac), and tried the build. That further led into the following errors. Not sure why this is happening on Linux. Any ideas?

[AlTimofeyev]

@bb-santoshbanerjee If you're still having this linker error on MacOS, and you're using Homebrew to manage your packages, install boost version 1.76 and it will complete the build process successfully. I ran into the same issue today and this worked for me!

brew install [email protected]

If you have the newer version of boost installed, you might need to relink the Homebrew symlinks to the older version of boost:

brew unlink boost
brew link [email protected]

and then try to re-run the build step again.

[bb-santoshbanerjee]

Thanks for the reply @AlTimofeyev !
Your suggestion did work. I was able to build it successfully on my Mac.
As a workaround I had installed an Ubuntu VM on UTM and got the OSRM to build there.

[AlTimofeyev]

Nice! Glad I could help out!
I was going to try your approach too, with a VM, if I couldn't get it to build successfully.

#6709 resolved issues with Boost 1.8x, so this should be fine now?
