    Thanks! Mostly liblzma-native relies on prebuilds for all platforms, so building from source, while a fallback, is almost an error condition. For this (fully automated) fallback I guess it makes sense to assume as little as possible about the build tools available, and autotools or cmake is a big ask vs just a C compiler. Prebuilds for darwin-arm64 have been made, so I guess liblzma-native is happy and can wait until the next official release of XZ Utils that includes updated autotools files.

    Hi, It's more than 2 years since 5.2.5 was released, and during this time there's a new architecture on the market! Currently the ./configure in 5.2.5 fails if run on the new Apple M1 Macs (darwin-arm64) and require patching config.sub - see https://github.com/addaleax/lzma-native/pull/123 Just re-running ./autogen.sh will create a working configure setup for M1 macs, but it requires a bigger build chain (with autoconf etc) that many people don't have. Would you consider releasing patch release (5.2.6?)...
