Native library `yoda_phy_pa_x86_64` not found while installing Unet audio in macOS

Question

macOS GateKeeper is giving me the following error message while trying to run Unet audio:

"libyoda_phy_pa_x86_64.dylib" cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified

and the terminal reads:

> bin/unet audio
Native library yoda_phy_pa_x86_64 not found

---

Answer 1

1. Once you see the prompt with the message, click "Cancel".
2. Open "System Preferences", and go to "Security & Privacy". The message "libyoda_phy_pa_x86_64.dylib" was blocked from use because it is not from an identified developer. will be listed at the bottom part of the dialog with a button saying Allow Anyway next to it. Click the button.

3. Go back to the terminal, type bin/unet audio again and press Enter.
4. It will show a dialog with message macOS cannot verify the developer of "libyoda_phy_pa_x86_64.dylib. Are you sure you want to open it?
5. Click "open" and that should open a browser window with the Overview dashboard of Unet audio.

To install PortAudio:

• Download source from http://files.portaudio.com/download.html
• Build and install instructions: http://files.portaudio.com/docs/v19-doxydocs/compile_mac_coreaudio.html
• Alternatively, you can install PortAudio using brew by typing the following in a terminal.

> brew install portaudio

NOTE: Installation instructions for brew can be found here: https://docs.brew.sh/Installation

To install Java 8:

> brew tap adoptopenjdk/openjdk
> brew cask install adoptopenjdk8

If the following error persists, it might be an issue with the path.

> bin/unet audio
Native library yoda_phy_pa_x86_64 not found

Brew installs PortAudio at /usr/local/Cellar/portaudio/ (with symlinks to /usr/local/opt/portaudio/). If you installed from source, make sure there is a symlink at the above location to your PortAudio folder.

Answer 2

IF you have mac M1, then you have to change the architecture to x86_64 as JAVA 8 requires intel architecture(first install rosetta 2). \n To change the architectures - env /usr/bin/arch -x86_64 /bin/zsh --login //arm to intel env /usr/bin/arch -arm64 /bin/zsh --login //intel to arm you can check by typing % arch after this install homebrew, JAVA 8 and portaudio as instructed above by @manuignatius. Then you are good to go.
