Description

FYI Install app looking for xcode.app in /Applications/Utilities. By default of the App Store it is installed in Applications. I actually prefer it in utilities too!

What are you talking about—what specific problem are you seeing? MacPorts installs fine for me on Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.8 inclusive.

On install it stated that I had an old version 2.0 Xcode. I noticed that the install was looking in /Application/Utilities. I moved my Xcode.app to my Utilities folder and it successfully installed. Probably a remnant from migrating from older versions of osx.

On Mountain Lion, Xcode belongs in /Applications; you should put it back there.

What output do you get from:

xcode-select --print-path

If that's pointing into /Applications/Utilities, it needs to be fixed with xcode-select --switch.

I think base code is sufficiently Xcode location-agnostic nowadays due to the use of xcode-select -print-path and other similar xcode switch tools.
