Please help.

I see from the log that you are on macOS 10.15 and do not have Xcode installed but do have the command line tools installed. I am also running 10.15 and although I do have Xcode installed, as far as I know it should be fine that you do not.

I'm a little surprised to see the build using MacOSX11.1.sdk in places even though MacPorts has told the build to use MacOSX10.15.sdk, but that shouldn't necessarily be a problem. On my system I see it is using MacOSX.sdk (which is a symlink to MacOSX11.1.sdk) and the build succeeds.

The file /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX11.1.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreText.framework/Versions/A/Headers/CTFontDescriptor.h does exist on my system and should exist on yours. If it does not, try reinstalling the command line tools.

Please reopen if you still experience the problem with the latest version of Aseprite after reinstalling the Xcode command line tools.
