 Hi,

 recently I tried to install some ports (for example git, wget, perl...),
 but every installation stopped and gave me this error:

 "Unable to determine location of a macOS SDK"

 I reinstalled Xcode 2.5, reinstalled the current version of MacPorts 2.5.4
 from the distribution package, but that did not help.

 Then I run

 {{{
 sudo port diagnose
 Error: process_cmd failed: could not execute "xcode-select": no such file
 or directory.
 }}}

 I cant find it in my Xcode installation.
 Was xcode-select introduced with a later Xcode version, and is not part of
 Xcode 2.5?

 I have tried some symlinking from the original Xcode directory
 (/Developer) to the directory that current Xcode versions use, but that
 did not help.

 What can I do, to define the SDK path in MacPorts?

 Thank you for any hints.
