Segmentation Fault on MacOSΒ #623

I am trying to use Sourcextractor++ on MacOS with an Apple Silicon Processor. Using Sourcextractor++ in its own conda environment and installing with

conda install -c conda-forge -c astrorama sourcextractor

Sourcextractor stops and gives a segmentation fault.

2025-08-28T15:59:32EDT SourceXtractor INFO : Writing output following segmentation order
2025-08-28T15:59:32EDT SourceXtractor INFO : Processing frame 1 / 3 : visit_image_v2024112700160_d0
zsh: segmentation fault sourcextractor++ --detection-image visit_image_v2024112700160_d0.fits

Using the DEBUG mode on log options I get

2025-08-28T16:06:23EDT SourceXtractor INFO : Writing output following segmentation order
2025-08-28T16:06:23EDT SourceXtractor INFO : Processing frame 1 / 3 : visit_image_v2024112700160_d0
2025-08-28T16:06:23EDT Multithreading DEBUG : Starting output thread
2025-08-28T16:06:23EDT Segmentation DEBUG : Using direct algorithm for the image convolution
2025-08-28T16:06:23EDT Segmentation DEBUG : Using direct algorithm for the image convolution
zsh: segmentation fault sourcextractor++ --config default.config --detection-image

I tried running Sourcextractor++ on my Ubuntu Linux machine with the same fits image and it ran just fine. Does anyone know the solution to solve this?

Thank you for your time.
