How I installed GCC ARM on my Mac 10.9 Mac Book Pro Β· GitHub
Thanks @markruys, I ran brew install px4/px4/gcc-arm-none-eabi which worked just fine for me. ... There are a number of solutions in this thread, but the official download from brew and ARM with : brew cask install gcc-arm-embedded ... The install works great. However when it is done the compile is unusable due to MacOS security.

[UPDATE: SOLVED] Apple (M2): arm-none-eabi-gcc is missing the nosys.specs file - Raspberry Pi Forums
September 2, 2023 - That was it! After I removed the old arm-gcc and installed the new everything worked. Thank you so so much for the very fast and easy help! ... Removing the *-eabi-* packages and installing gcc-arm-embedded fixed the same problem for me.

To use gdb python build (arm-none-eabi-gdb-py), you need install 32 bit python2.7 no matter 32 or 64 bit Windows. Please get the package from https://www.python.org/download/. * Invoking GCC * On Linux and Mac OS X, either invoke with the complete path like this: $ $install_dir/gcc-arm-none-eabi-*/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc Or set path like this: $ export PATH=$PATH:$install_dir/gcc-arm-none-eabi-*/bin $ arm-none-eabi-gcc On Windows (although the above approaches also work), it can be more convenient to either have the installer register environment variables, or run INSTALL_DIR\bin\gccvar.bat to set environment variables for the current cmd.

How do I change the gcc-arm-none-eabi version through homebrew back to the 2017 q4 release on macOS - Dronecode Forum | Open Source Drone Development
March 25, 2019 - The latest formula upgraded the release of gcc-arm-none-eabi to the GCC 7 2018 q2 update. Is there a fairly simple way to roll this back to the 2017 q4 release through homebrew? I can no longer build stable on the 2018 q2 release, only master.
