Description

Hello, I encountered the following error when trying to install admixtools./Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make -C nicksrc
cc -c -g -p -Wimplicit -fno-common -I./ -I/usr/local/opt/openblas/include -c -o strsubs.o strsubs.c
clang: error: unsupported option '-p' for target 'arm64-apple-macosx15.0.0'
make[1]: *** [strsubs.o] Error 1
make: *** [nicksrc/libnick.a] Error 2
My computer is a Mac mini (15.2 M4).
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
