While installing the package on VScode in Windows, I met the following question (for the dependent package: KaHyPar ). I have no idea what is going on, could you please give me some hints on this. Many and many thanks for your help.

Hi @Fishermanljh. KaHyPar unfortunately does not have Windows binaries. It is my understanding that the KaHyPar build process does not really support cross-compilation. @SebastianSchlag is this still the case? Are there any efforts towards producing a Windows build?

[SebastianSchlag]

Hi folks,
yes, support for Windows is still lacking. We had successful Windows builds in the past though, so in principle it should be possible to compile KaHyPar on a Windows machine. Alternatively, using the Windows Subsystem for Linux (and KaHyPar linux builds) could be a viable option.

Many thanks for your kindly reply and help. I will try the Linux system.

I also wonder whether this package supports the Mac OS ?

Yes, we have hosted builds for Mac OS. The M1 architecture should work as well.

Yep, MacOS/M1 should work out of the box.
