Yes, I had seen this thread and I had reviewed it. What I didn’t expect, was that the upgrade would suppress something! I don’t know how Python was present before the upgrade (builtin?) However, I have installed the Python3 pkg from the official Python website before I could read your advice.

This has been discussed here a number of times in the not so distant past. I think you need to install the X-Code command line tools to get /usr/bin/python3 again but I use Homebrew's python and that survives OS Upgrades. greetings, el On 07/11/2023 15:12, Daniel CLEMENT via lyx-users wrote:
