Xcode

My apologies for posting this message twice. But I thought someone might know
about Xcode who wasn't reading the long and boring thread about my port
install problems with exiv2.

I downloaded the latest version of Xcode to each of my two machines. The
download was xcode31_2199_developerdvd.dmg for Xcode 3.1 (or maybe 3.1.1).
When I click on XcodeTools.mpkg, I get the message
Open Failed. Couldn't open "XcodeTools.mpkg".
This happens on both my Intel laptop and on my G4 PCC, both running MacOsX
10.4.11.
Although this is not directly a MacPorts problem, it does seem to be a
problem for MacPorts, because MacPorts depend on Xcode's gcc working
correctly.

Is it the case that Xcode3.x is not suitable for MacOsX 10.4.11? I read what
Apple had to say about this, and it certainly seems to me that it is
supposed to work on 10.4.11, but maybe I didn't understand what they were
saying.

I'm about to try Xcode2.5 to see if that works any better.

Any suggestions as to another forum the "Couldn't open" message would be
on-topic?
Thanks
David
