E+ Python API on macOS?

Hi there,

is here anyone using the EnergyPlus Python API on macOS? I was following the build instructions on cmake accurately (twice) but receive the following error message:

ERROR: Could not find ExpandObjects executable: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/ExpandObjects.

I also tried it within an Anaconda Environment receiving a similar error message:

ERROR: Could not find ExpandObjects executable: /Users/user/opt/anaconda3/envs/buildingAutomation/bin/ExpandObjects

Can anyone help?

Best Regards, P
