I got this error when installing a package but I already have Xcode 3.2.2 installed. How does MacPorts check xcode version and what can I do? Thanks in advance.

MacPorts determines your Xcode version by running "`xcodebuild -version`" and extracting the displayed Xcode version number. Xcode 3.0 and older did not display the Xcode version number here, so in this case MacPorts falls back to comparing the displayed internal version number of DevToolsCore with a list of known version numbers that correspond to public Xcode version releases. See [browser:trunk/base/src/macports1.0/macports.tcl?rev=68697#L352 the macports::setxcodeinfo procedure]. What does "`xcodebuild -version`" say on your system? What happens if you simply install Xcode 3.2.2 again (possibly using the Dev Tools uninstall script first)? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25217#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
