6.0.1 was released in mid-September, long before 10.10 was released. It works just fine on 10.10, except for the lack of a 10.10 SDK which, most of the time, you don't really need anyway if you have installed the Command Line tools and headers. Unfortunately, the build processes for some ports really do depend on using an SDK and/or xcodebuild, which is why MacPorts requires that you install both Xcode and the Command Line Tools. Back in the day before the CLTs were broken out as a convenient separate item, it really didn't matter as you always had to install Xcode. These days it would be nice if all ports could be built with just the CLT. But that's not the job of the MacPorts folks to do, that's an upstream issue for each project. In any case, in 24 hours this should all be a moot point as the expected official release of Xcode 6.1 will have both an 10.10 and 10.9 SDK and 6.0.1 will become obsolete. -- Ned Deily, [email protected] _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
