Issue

Hello,

I can't install VMTK 1.5.0 from conda-forge with this command lines (conda 24.1.2):

conda install -c conda-forge vmtk==1.5.0

or
conda install vmtk

I've any time this error :

It looks like you're on an Apple silicon mac? Currently this repo doesn't build packages for ARM machines. I assume it should be feasible to add it as the VTK feedstock added support a couple of years ago, however so far I haven't gotten around to looking into it

[ramtingh]

Probably you'd want to follow the workaround here vmtk/vmtk#452 (comment)
