El Capitan Problems
General Issues
First of all, please read Migration.
Updating MacPorts Base
MacPorts must be re-installed in a version configured for OS X 10.11 El Capitan.
Ensure you have at least the command line tools installed by running xcode-select --install
from a Terminal. Make sure to also run this even if you have Xcode installed, because some ports fail to build without it. You also have to run sudo xcodebuild -license
after doing this.
If you get a CoreSimulator error message
Ensure your macports user has the correct home directory. (#49101)
Run the following (#45445):
sudo launchctl asuser
id -u macports
sudo -u macports xcrun simctl list
