Please read ​http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to learn how to create proper ticket reports, thanks!

Thanks for the link on the guidelines.

[abigatti@…]

I reloaded X11 and Xcode from the Web and that cleared the issue.

Thanks, Ario.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I did not see this ticket until now. If you want a maintainer to see a ticket, you need to assign it to them.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I'll close the ticket since it seems to have been an Xcode problem that you've already resolved.

[grahamperrin@…]

I have what may be the same problem.

Please, is Xcode a requirement?

Incidentally, the Cc Me button on this ticket doesn't work:

— I'd be grateful if you could add grahamperrin@…

Thanks

[grahamperrin@…]

Sorry, please ignore the stupid question, I see that ​Xcode is a requirement. I'm just so familiar with having it on my own computers that I was thrown by its absence on someone else's. Ticket can be closed again.
