The abovementioned installation was launched from R clinspacy package.

I now try to install / build it manually. Strangely, pip install blis runs w/o errors, but pip install spacy or pip install spacy --no-binary blis returns errors:

BLIS_ARCH="arm64" pip install spacy==2.3
or
BLIS_ARCH="arm64" pip install spacy==2.3 --no-binary blis

No such file or directory: '.../blis/_src/make/darwin-arm64.jsonl'

DEPRECATION: --no-binary currently disables reading from the cache of locally built wheels. In the future --no-binary will not influence the wheel cache. pip 23.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to use the --no-cache-dir option. You can use the flag --use-feature=no-binary-enable-wheel-cache to test the upcoming behaviour.

If you want to use spacy v2, please try using 'spacy~=2.3.0' instead, which will install the latest version of v2.3.x, which should have binary wheels for osx arm64 (and should also compile from source correctly).

blis v0.7.x uses the generic arch for M1/M2 and will be very slow. For spacy v3 you should install spacy with 'spacy[apple]' to install thinc-apple-ops, which uses apple's Accelerate library instead of blis. There's no equivalent package for spacy v2, though.

There's no arm64 architecture for blis. You should be able to rely on the autodetection for newer releases, but you can see the supported architectures here: https://github.com/explosion/cython-blis/tree/v0.7.x/blis/_src/make . blis v0.9.x supports firestorm, but there are bugs in some kernels that are preventing us from using it generally for spacy yet.
