Hi Ben Thanks for replying. As I mentioned in my original email I'm on Ventura,13.2.1, I just upgraded to that before installing alpha3. I have command line tools. I did the following to reinstall them and got the same results stated in my email: sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools Password: bash-3.2$ xcode-select --install xcode-select: note: install requested for command line developer tools Looking more carefully at the error message: checking Xcode version... xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires

Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLin eTools' is a command line tools instance not found (too old?)

It seems to be saying that I need Xcode not command line tools. That's also consistent with the linker warning message: ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/Applications/*Xcode.app* /Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX12.1.sdk/usr/lib' There is no urgency on my part to get this resolved. We may want to just wait to see if anybody else on 13.2.1 got this also. Thanks George On Wed, Feb 15, 2023 at 1:20 PM Ben Gamari wrote:

Hi

I get a strange warning on MacOS when I do ./configure:

checking Xcode version... xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance not found (too old?)

I also get a related strange warning when I do a compile:

ghc hello.hs [1 of 2] Compiling Main ( hello.hs, hello.o ) [Missing object file] [2 of 2] Linking hello [Objects changed] ld: warning: directory not found for option

'-L/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX12.1.sdk/usr/lib'

...

Hmm, that is indeed odd. It sounds like you Xcode installation may be broken. Did you upgrade your operating system recently? Do you have Xcode, the CLT package, or both installed?

Cheers,

It seems wrong to me that the configure file references Xcode.app and MacOSX12.1:

bash-3.2$ fgrep Xcode.app configure

FFIIncludeDir=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX12.1.sdk/usr/include/ffi

FFILibDir=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX12.1.sdk/usr/lib
