 Here is the log:\\

 System headers do not appear to be installed. Most ports should build
 correctly, but if you experience problems due to a port depending on
 system headers, please file a ticket at https://trac.macports.org.\\

 It always asks me to install `xcode-select --install`, I have installed it
 like 50 times.
 This line is new since the update:\\

 Unable to execute port: can't read "configure.sdkroot":

 I have no idea what file this is nor where to locate it.
 How can I fix this?
 Please help.
 Im running Yosemite.
 I have XCode installed and the XCode Tools.
 I have been running MacPorts successfully for years on this station.
 Ever since the selfupdate today it broke.
 I cannot upgrade to High Sierra because we use an XSan system over fibre
 and the newer versions of OS X don't support our setup.
 I even tried uninstalling all my ports and deleting macports all together
 and then re-installing from scratch.
 Still gives me that error about the config file.
