@RafalKucharskiPK , This is an upstream issue, so we have no control. I also don't have a machine with an M1 chip available for testing. What you can do for now is to install aequilibrae with the --no-deps flag and install all other requirements (e.g. scipy) manually.

[jamiecook]

Note that a new 0.9.1 version is now out which may install more smoothly on your machine. If not I might have to spin up an AWS instance to see what is happening with the M1 chips. - Jamie http://jamiecook.wordpress.com

I am now trying to install AequilibraE in an arm64 base linux machine. I installed PyQt5 in advance but still met this problem. I also tried to add --no-deps flag but the install process still tried to install pyqt5 by itself. Is there any other solution? Or could I compile and install it from the source code? If so, how can I do it?

[pedrocamargo]

@RafalKucharskiPK , PyQt5 has been removed as a dependency, which should solve the problem you are having.

As discussed here #582, AequilibraE is not currently built for M1, as we are having problems on CI. That issue is being tracked there, so I am closing this one.
