Hi, not finding any other way to fix the problem i decided to start from scratch, i reformatted the drive and made a new fresh installation of the OS and then of darwinPorts. When the time came to install xtools I noticed that had a few different discs, in particular one labeled as xtools 1.0 and another as xtools 1.2 (coming form different sets of OS X). During my previous install i must have used the 1.0 disc as I remember it downloading the 1.1 update form software updates but it never (explicitly) updated to 1.2. Could this be the issue I was having? Unfortunately i was not able to find anything about this in the apple developer website. I someone else encounter the same problem that might be something to look into. take care, Marco On Mar 7, 2007, at 10:42 PM, Marco Battistella wrote:
HI, actually that was the first thing I had tried (thinking that I might had forgot to install the xtools). Anyway i ran the xtools installer it again, just to try, but the error persists. Does anybody know where the config.log for this operation is located? thanks, Marco

This is in a system with a fresh OS install, my configuration is OS X server 10.3.9 with xTools installed and all updates installed. I tried re installing darwingports but i still get the same error.
I would try and install Developer Tools again. I had exactly the same error on a completely different machine (iMac G5, Mac OS X 10.4.8 and Developer Tools 2.4.0). I believe that somebody (myself?) did a partial install of Developer Tools before. I just installed Developer Tools 2.4.1 over it and everything went fine afterwards.
Bye, Christian
