Hmm, although I just checked on our OS X test box (which has the command-line tools installed, not full XCode) and it seems that the /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Toolchains directory doesn't exist. Presumably this is a (rather unfortunate) difference between full XCode and the command-line package. Do you know whether there is some advice that we might be able to offer that will work in both cases?

There doesn't seem to be an nm-classic corresponding to the Command Line Tools. In 10.11 at least, that package name is a misnomer; the command line utilities are part of the base system (com.apple.pkg.Essentials) and the SDK package is just includes and libs. There's no nm-classic hidden in either of them.

Ahh, this is useful. Thanks! In that case I suppose I need to work out how to install the full XCode package via the command line. If you have any pointers for this it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, - Ben
