Well you apparently have the file /Users/house/Library/Python/3.8/bin/html2tex and you have configured your $PATH so that binaries located in /Users/house/Library/Python/3.8/bin are found before those located in /opt/local/bin. If you want those in /opt/local/bin to be found first, put /opt/local/bin earlier in your $PATH. Or delete /Users/house/Library/Python/3.8/bin/html2tex.
