A clean install of Xcode,
No. There is no gcc_select in Xcode-3.0. Fink doesn't mind if there is none. Problems arise only when an old gcc_select survives from older xcode, because fink sees it and tries it out, but it doesn't work. >> rather than trying to update in place, has historically helped with >> such issues. > Ooops...forgot to note how to do the clean install: at least on <=10.4 > there's a script called /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl that will > flush the Xcode install. Hopefully Leopard isn't different in this. Well, in the situation in question, it is still the old uninstall script that is useful. Leopard *is* different concerning pkg installation: The receipts are now in /Library/Receipts/boms/, and there is a command "pkgutil" to manage them, including removing the receipt or even the installed files. The pkg's themselves are no longer directories, but /usr/bin/xar archives. For the dev tools, there is the perl script /Library/Developer/3.0/uninstall-devtools. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
