ossp-uuid fails to compile on latest Ventura

[daran0815]

Apparently the configuration tries to compile against macos sdk 13.0, when the latest xcode xcode only provides 13.1 (xcodebuild -showsdks: -sdk macosx13.1). The config log contains the following (excerpt):

This error is usually the result of outdated command line tools. The main.log would show your installed version.

I attached the main.log. Can't really see anything outdated. This happened right after an upgrade to Ventura: I reinstalled the port, used "port selfupdate" which worked and then "port upgrade outdated" which failed as stated.

From the log:

:warn:archivefetch The Xcode Command Line Tools package appears to be installed, but its receipt appears to be missing.
:warn:archivefetch The Command Line Tools may be outdated, which can cause problems.
:warn:archivefetch Please see: <https://trac.macports.org/wiki/ProblemHotlist#reinstall-clt>

Replying to daran0815:

Apple clang version 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.17)

This version of Clang is from Xcode 11.3.1 which (per XcodeVersionInfo) is for macOS 10.14 and 10.15. Not compatible with Ventura. Upgrade Xcode and/or Xcode CLT to a Ventura-compatible version.

Reinstalling the command line tools was cumbersome, but did in fact fix the issue.

It would be nice if we required an output from "port diagnose" for tickets, and if port diagnose picked up this problem automatically for folks (if it doesn't robustly do so now).

Would save everyone a lot of time.

That's #63130. But the user has to run port diagnose manually, whereas the warning I quoted above is already printed to stderr whenever a build is done.
