I had same problem on M2 Macmini. I fixed this problem following procedure today.

  1. Search “libarchive.19.dylib” by Spotlight
  2. 3 files were catched in my M2 Macmini, so I copied the latest version among them.
  3. Pasted the latest version file mention above to the directory which was indicated in the command line.
    (In your case, “/Users/murraycantor/opt/anaconda3/lib/”)
    This procedure fixed the problem.
    I hope that my experience will give your solution.
