[Emacspeak] Re: Mac OS Monterey upgrade causes emacspeak to not load

You may have to install the XCode Command line tools. Do:

xcode-select --install

or if you have homebrew, it should already be installed. Also check the app store or software updates for updates to it.

If nothing else, get a virtual machine manager like VMWare Player, get a Debian ISO, install it on the virtual machine, and then work that way. You won't get the latest Emacs unless you move to unstable, or use homebrew for Linux, but that will at least give you Emacs with Emacspeak.

+1 to what Raman said; it's actually a breakage by Apple. XCode command line tools is where those extra python bindings live.

Try reinstalling or run it from source via Apple's open source repos.

Lol, Apple support barely knows what VoiceOver (Mac screen reader) is, let alone the Invested nature of Emacspeak!

Have you tried calling Apple support since as you say "it is an
