MacOS compilation error about dropbear HOT 6 CLOSED

Can you check that the dev tools being used are all from xcode? I wonder if it's using ranlib/ar/gcc/clang from homebrew or similar which doesn't have the right support. If you can upload config.log that might have some details.

Thanks, I appreciate the quick reply. Not sure but I think it uses the default xcode-select. I've also installed the homebrew so not sure if they somehow conflict. The config.log is attached below.

Thanks a lot.

These binaries here are coming from /usr/local/opt which might be homebrew. I guess /usr/bin should be first in path, or perhaps there's a way to update/configure homebrew.

Sorry for the late reply and thanks a lot for the help!

I was able to compile after uninstalling the homebrew and removing the /usr/local/opt/ path from the ~/.zshrc file.

As far as I remember, it was the default ones from the xcode commandline tools. I also installed zig toolchain for cross-compiling but not sure if that has any effect since zig uses it's own commands for cross-compiling.
