OSX 10.8, Xcode 4.4 Make and gcc gone from environment


I just upgraded to Mountain Lion OSX 10.8 and along with that I foolishly upgraded to Xcode 4.4.

However, after this upgrade "make" is gone and things like gcc -v also do not work.

This is a big thing since I am writing my phD and I rely on make to compile my LaTeX docs...

Downloading the "command line tools"

http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/xcode_4.4_gm_seed/cltools10_8gmseed6938077a.dmg

Is apparently not allowed for non-paying dev accounts.

What kind of foolishness is this?


Solution

  • They're not gone, they've just been relocated to inside Xcode's app bundle. This is actually nicer as it allows side by side installs of different XCode/SDK versions.

    You can find them at: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin

    Also check out the xcode-select tool to allow you to choose the current active toolchain path.
