Comment (by kencu):
`use_xcode yes` was a response to many people who didn't want to have to
install a full Xcode to use MacPorts, but wanted to install the command
line tools only. Many ports don't need a full Xcode installation -- but
some that use Xcode-specific tools, do. You can opine about whether this
request for no full Xcode should have been supported -- but in the end, it
was.
And that means that ports that do need a full xcode installation now have
to specifically say so. Democracy -- has it's downsides :>
Regarding 10.14 specific code, you will see me and others regularly try to
make sure the older systems, all the way back to 10.4 Tiger, are as
supported as possible. Any help you or anyone else would care to offer in
doing that is most graciously accepted. So long as it doesn't break newer
systems, and is not overly cumbersome or unintelligible, the MacPorts
admins have indicated they will continue to accept it with thanks.
