WordDumb can't find Python (installed via Homebrew), even after specifying explicitly the path to it via macos-env.txt

You don't have to add PATH to macos-env.txt if the package is installed from homebrew, and please also make sure both python and calibre are not using Rosetta.

Thanks for the fast response time ! M1 mac would mean no Rosetta correct ? And I tried to add it to that file but the only way I could make your plugin work was launch it from the command line in fish where the path is set to see python.

Please read this document(https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861) to check if calibre(or your terminal) is using Rosetta.

And homebrew will link python to the correct location(/usr/local/bin or /opt/homebrew/bin) so users shouldn't add the path manually. Could you check whether /opt/homebrew/bin/python3 exists?

And also the macos-env.txt file feature is not included in the v3.29.3 release. You can download the master branch test version from GitHub Actions Artifacts.
