org-agenda on Mac M1

Hi,

I have rrecently had to move from Linux to MacOS and setting up on an M1
computer I have run inte to ann issue I can't figure out. When I run
org-agenda I get the sub menu but if I hit 'a' emacs hangs, though I can
get it back if I hit C-g. Without my init file it works. I have gone
through all my claendar files, adding the one at a time and I have gone
through my init file using this method:

1. Remove everything except the org-agenda stuff: org-agenda works as
expected
2. Adding one piece of the config file at a time: org-agenda works after
eache addition
3. After a emacs restart org agenda fails.

I have no experience in debugging, but I tried to run debug-on-error with
org-agenda and I got the following, which is not so helpful (to me):

* org-agenda(nil)
  funcall-interactively(org-agenda nil)
  call-interactively(org-agenda record nil)
  command-execute(org-agenda record)
  execute-extended-command(nil "org-agenda" "org-agenda")
  funcall-interactively(execute-extended-command nil "org-agenda"
"org-agenda")
  call-interactively(execute-extended-command nil nil)
  command-execute(execute-extended-command)

Anyone else has a suggestion on a next step here?

/Henrik

What happens when you run `M-x toggle-debug-on-quit RET' right after you
run `emacs -Q', and do your usual steps to reproduce the issue?  That
might provide a more detailed backtrace for investigation.

In addition, what version of Emacs and of org are you using?  Posting
the results of these two commands would help a lot:
- `M-: emacs-repository-version RET'
- `M-x org-version RET'

random: taking out one agenda file may make it work, but then after a
restart it doesn't work, etc.

Ah yes, sorry!

That evaluates to nil. M-x emacs-version is GNU Emacs 28.2 (build 1,
aarch64-apple-darwin21.6.0, Carbon Version 165 AppKit 2113.6) of 2023-02-12

9.6.1

After some more testing it appears that there is something in my
calendar.org file that makes org-agenda hickup. The same file works fine on
my other computer (linux) and the same emacs / org version. I have not been
able to pinpoint exactly what the error is. If I find it I will post it.
