I can't run the command :GutentagsUpdate.
It failed with the error below:
gutentags: ctags job failed, returned: 1
The message I am seeing is below:

I installed brew install ctags-exuberant and the version of ctags is 5.8_2
I am using Macbook Pro 14, M1 Max chip, Monteray.

I just resolved this issue.
I had to set a ctags executable manually installed thru homebrew by setting variable in bashrc as
let g:gutentags_ctags_executable='/opt/homebrew/bin/ctags'
