Cannot compile on MacOS (M2 MB Air)

[amycol]

I cannot get Pineflash to compile on MacOS, M2 Macbook Air. Following the manual build instructions I get this after cargo build --release:

amy@Mac PineFlash % cargo build --release
   Compiling pineflash v0.5.5 (/Users/amy/Documents/Projects/Pinecil/PineFlash)

Just tried the generic_unix_install.sh script and had the same error. I was expecting this but thought to try it anyway to rule out the possibility that I typed a command wrong or something.

Duplicate of gh-87

After cloning the repo, you could trying running either git checkout a823625 to revert the problematic commit, or git checkout 0.5.5 to get the latest release version.

Not sure that correct but helps me - just remove {} at src/main.rs:532

That works. The ‘better’ solution would be to replace the missing argument, as in gh-86.
