found architecture 'x86_64', required architecture 'arm64'

I was trying to install nuSQuIDS on a Mac with the Apple M2 Max chip.

./configure --prefix="../nusquids" --with-gsl-incdir="../gsl/include" --with-gsl-libdir="../gsl/lib" --with-squids-incdir="../include" --with-squids-libdir="../squids/lib"

Checking manually specified GSL...
Looking for hdf5...
 Found hdf5 version 1.10.4 via executables in $PATH
Checking manually specified SQUIDS...

./configure: line 868: pkg-config: command not found
Done.

To build the library, run the following: make
After, to build examples: make examples

The doing

make

produced the following error:

Seems like you need to build the hdf5 library from source (https://portal.hdfgroup.org/downloads/) and tell its location to the configure script using --with-hdf5=/Location/of/hdf5.
HDF5 can be built the same way as nuSQuIDS by invoking the configure script with options --prefix=/Location/of/hdf5 and --enable-cxx for the required c bindings.

Can you tell me if nuSQuIDS works on your arm mac? I have a M1 Max machine and was able to install nuSQuIDS (without python bindings) but as soon as I execute my program it is immediately killed by zsh.
On my Intel Mac I do not encounter this problem... SQuIDS for instance works...
