Seasonal Adjustment Problem

Hi Johannes, thanks. I had come across this topic already (X13 binary warning after fresh install of Dynare - #4 by jack), but the problem seems to be different [Btw, the second link shared by @wmutschl in that topic seem to be broken.]

I also found this topic, but wasn’t successful. I’ve followed the following steps as suggested by @wmutschl:

X13 seasonal adjustedment does not work on Mac

Could you run the following commands in a terminal (not MATLAB command window):
/Applications/Dynare/5.2/matlab/modules/dseries/src/../externals/x13/macOS/64/x13as
ls /usr/local/opt/gcc/lib/gcc
ls /opt/homebrew/opt/gcc/lib/gcc
and post the result?

This is what I get in my terminal:

Thanks again for your help!
