Bad CPU type on MacbookPro M4

[maximede]

Description

Hello, I'm having a bit of an issue with a brand new install on a new macbook pro m4.

Vorta cannot find borg in the about tab and fails when trying to add a new repo with a weird "Bad CPU type" error

Well, not sure exactly what happened but after a couple reboot, vorta is now finding borg and I can't reproduce this "bad cpu" issue.

I'm now having the same issue as I had on my air m1 ( #2100 ) but at least I'm ublocked :)

I'm still happy happy trying to help identifying what happened

Hi. I'm on an M4 Pro MacbookPro and I'm getting a very similar issue. When Vorta is run it tries to launch borg.exe.
I've tried re-installing Vorta and borg via homebrew with no luck.

2024-12-20 09:00:59,740 - vorta.keyring.abc - DEBUG - No module named 'secretstorage'

Vorta Version 0.10.2

However when launching Vorta via the command line, the homebrew Borg gets properly detected ! Can we get a release for #2166 as I suspect it might fix both issues ?

Thank you.

Edit : I'm not running Rosetta which might explain why the borg intel binary is not found and defaults to borg.exe.

Yes, good idea. I can do a release for #2166
