I,m using kali-linux 5.18.0-kali5-amd64

Hi, is that really all the output that it gives you?

I don't really know what kali-linux is, but it seems that it is not possible to use scikit-build on it, in which case this is either a bug in kali-linux or in scikit-build.

Please try to install scikit-build and build one of the sample projects, and if that works, then perhaps there is a problem with PocketSphinx.
