The homebrew open-babel package requires python also from homebrew, which 
somehow has been uninstalled (did you run “brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies 
python”?). I presume “brew install python” will bring it back. Open Babel from 
homebrew won’t work with the separate python 3.8 you appear to also have 
installed.
