734220 - SDKs are not installed in /Developer/SDKs since Xcode 4.3

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Nomis101]

Since Xcode 4.3, Xcode is a bundled application with the SDKs inside the app. The SDKs are now in Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs. If you install Xcode from scratch you are therefore not able to build, because configure is not able to find the SDK.

I also ran into this. It looks like Xcode will ask to delete previous version when upgrading which I did because of low free space.

We should either provide a fix or suggest users to create a symlink when running configure.

Work arround by smichaud:
~> sudo mkdir /Developer
~> sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs /Developer/SDKs
~> sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Tools /Developer/Tools

I installed a clean Mountain Lion a few weeks ago, instaled Xcode through the App Store, and had no trouble building m-c *without* pointing it at /Applications.

Can you give more detail about your filesystem layout? Does /Developers exist? What does |xcode-select --print-path| say?

No details provided on bug in over a year. Assuming it's not an issue any more.
