[mischov]

Please provide information about versions (for Elixir, Erlang/OTP, Rust, meeseeks, meeseeks_html5ever) when submitting issues like this.

That said, a similar issue was fixed in meeseeks_html5ever version 0.13.1, so I would ensure you're using that.

Edit: I can't tell if you're asking in specific to using meeseeks or if you just need help compiling some other Rustler NIF on M1. If it's the latter the issue linked above contains the solution.
