I’m trying to install erlang version 24.2 on a macbook m1 with macOS 12.3 Monterey and I’m having this compilation error.
Build failed.

megaco_flex_scanner
These seem to be errors related to megaco rather than Erlang? I have no knowledge of megaco and had to google it. I have had no issues with OTP 24 or OTP 25 RC installs on my M1-based system hence my conjecture about megaco-related configuration being the issue.
Your error message looks similar to the ones here:

Sorry if this is duplicated, but I couldn't find any issue with this specific er… ror.
I'm getting this error when I try to install OTP 24 through asdf. I've tried any solution for any problem reported with OTP 24 on macOS Big Sur that I could find, but nothing works. I've tried installing version 24.0.1 as well, with no success.
```

Make sure you’ve got the latest build of kerl if you’re using it.
