Hey @jaimergp! I noticed that last time you bumped the version of macOS. I think https://github.com/conda-forge will be affected now as well.

Somebody jumped the gun? Microsoft-hosted agents > Software already says macos-12 is "deprecated" and the macos-latest image just jumped from macos-12 to macos-14 between October 1st and October 2nd.

Because GitHub is about to deprecate macos-12, and macos-15 is
about to leave beta.
