What about the new Lazarus 2.2 Update and it‘s Release candidate? Will there be a stable / native installer of Lazarus + fpc in a complete Package?

I assume so, but I don't know. I'm not a Lazarus developer.
Martin_fr:
The last info I had is that there currently is no one with an M1 in the team. So until that changes, there wont be an installer.
I don't know if the Mac-relevant team members are all regularly reading the forum. So it may be hard to get more info here. If there are no answers, I recommend to try the mail list.

Dmitry has one. You also don't need an M1 to create M1 binaries, you can cross-compile from Intel.

Maybe you can ask trev for help? He has set up a nightly build for the M1 after all.

I use FPC and Lazarus on Mac Mini M1 since March. And earlier I used trunk versions of FPC/Lazarus on Apple DTK since July 2020.
New official FPC 3.2.2 has an installer with native compilers for Intel and ARM code. It's a very simple installation process now.
I compiled Lazarus Trunk from source code (it's really simple - just one command in Terminal). And I hope to see official Lazarus 2.2.0 for Intel and ARM soon.
My product for Mac is Universal Binary. I compiled Intel and ARM versions and merged them with lipo command line tool to create a single universal binary.
So my product works fine on Intel and M1 Macs already 4 months.
Many thanks to FPC and Lazarus teams!
