How to build zlib library on a m1 chip macbookpro? - c++

Question

I downloaded zlib from https://zlib.net/ and execute ./configure and make cmd. However, it shows that there are some undefined symbols for architecture arm64. How to build zlib in this case?
I'm using a macbookpro 2021 with apple m1pro chip.

Not reproducible.
Tested on M1 Max macOS 12.5.1 with XCode 13.4.1 and Homebrew in the /opt/homebrew directory.
I noticed you have /usr/local/include and /usr/local/bin in your path. Those should be non-existent on M1 macOS. They were for Homebrew Intel.
% ls -l /usr/local/include /usr/local/bin
ls: /usr/local/bin: No such file or directory
ls: /usr/local/include: No such file or directory
