Problem compiling many Rosetta Code Nim programs: could not load: libgmp.dylib

[Kenneth Wolcott]

Hi Ryan;

  Thank you for replying.

  Here is more information regarding the problem I am experiencing.

  I have attached some Nim source code (from Rosetta Code web site),
compile log, execution log and the pkg install log.

  1. MacOS 15.2
  2. M1 chip (arm64, aarch64)
  3. MacPorts port: nim
  4. nimble is the Nim package manager which comes with the nim port.
  4. nimble install bignum (seems to successfully install, but I wonder if
it is silently installing an x86-64 pre-compiled binary??)
  5. compile using: nim c ./arithmetic_geometric_mean_calculate_pi
  6. execute: ./arithmetic_geometric_mean_calculate_pi

  Compiling with debug, suggested by the execution failure message, did not
at all provide and additional information than compiling in default mode.

  I do not recall specifically which external Nim pkg that I was able to
install and subsequently compile a Nim source which used it and
successfully executed, but it as at least one if not several, so I don't
thikthat this is a general silent Nim pkg installation failure.

Thanks again for the help with this issue.
