Importing fugashi raises ImportError on macOS

[kumapo]

fugashi v1.2.1 raises ImportError, but v1.2.0 does nothing.
Is there something wrong on my part?

the traceback:

..

Sorry you're having trouble with this. It sounds like maybe you're on an M1 Mac - in that case you need to install MeCab first, and then install fugashi from source. See this thread, which is for mecab-python3, though it's the same problem.

Also, it would help to know how you installed fugashi. It sounds like your specific error is maybe due to an architecture mismatch, or possibly due to some other difference in the compilation between fugashi and MeCab.

Also, when you say 1.2.0 "does nothing", do you mean it works without error, or something else?

Thank you for your quick reply.

Actually I tested it on Intel Mac.
and, what I meant by that is v1.2.0 works without any errors.

Also, when you say 1.2.0 "does nothing", do you mean it works without error, or something else?
I meant

based on your suggestion, it may exist the arch mismatch between fugashi and MeCab on my side.

Sorry for the delayed followup, but since it sounds like an issue on your end I'll close this. Feel free to post again if there's something I can help with.
