 === I get the error "C compiler cannot create executables" or "ld: library not found for -lcrt1.10.6.o" or "can't read "build.cmd": Failed to locate 'make' in path" when I try to install a port. Why? === #missingxcode
 
 You need to [http://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.xcode.html#installing.xcode install Xcode and the command line tools].

-=== How do I upgrade my Xcode install? === #upgradexcode

-Some ports need newer versions of Xcode than that which ships with the OS, and will fail to install with older versions due to that requirement.  Apple has begun updating Xcode via Software Update on Mac OS X 10.6, but on older OS releases you have to download new Xcode versions manually.  To do so, go to http://connect.apple.com/ and log in with your Apple ID (the free online developer account is enough to get access to Xcode).  Once you log in, go to ''Downloads'', then select ''Developer Tools'' on the right section under ''Downloads''.  You can then search for Xcode (there are quite a few versions available, make sure to get the latest for your OS version) using your browser, via Cmd-F.
 
 === Will my MacPorts install continue to work after installing a new major OS release or migrating to a new machine with a different CPU architecture? === #migration
 In general the answer is no. See [wiki:Migration] for how to get things working again.
