This change + updated CPA3 for mac source installation instructions allowed us to build CPA3 from source on Esteban's M2 mac. GUI seemed to work fine there as well as on my Intel mac.

Installing wxPython 4.1.0 is very hard on mac arm architectures, because there was no universal mac wheel at that time (mac x86_64 only), and to build the wheel it requires a different set of C headers than are available in the more recent x-code dev tools package.
