John, again thanks. Yes, the obvious is not obvious to me as I am a user and much beyond that I am lost, especially with doing terminal commands. I love using GC and it works great until MAC or sometimes GC updates and there are problems which I try to find solutions to in the Archives. But when I don’t, I ask for help but again am not that coding or terminal savvy. I do try though and appreciate all the help and patience you all provide.
I ran the “sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app” command and the check which is below and seems to be correct. Last login: Thu Feb 10 12:58:28 on ttys000 dwa1@dwa1 ~ % sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app Password: dwa1@dwa1 ~ % xcode-select -p /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer dwa1@dwa1 ~ % I then ran “export PATH=“/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin:$PATH” which resulted in the “dquote>” prompt. Here again, I am not sure if I am supposed to substitute something for $PATH or not or if that is the command. At the “dquote>” prompt, I typed in “gnc-fq-update” which just went to the “dquote>” prompt again without updating FQ. Is gnc-fq-update the command or am I supposed to type something in front of gnc-fq-update? dwa1@dwa1 ~ % export PATH=“/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin:$PATH" dquote> gnc-fq-update dquote> In an earlier e-mail you stated: /usr/bin is right where you'd expect it, but you can't see it with Finder, only from the terminal. For example you can type ls -l /usr/bin/make and if it's there get back something like -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 167088 Dec 7 15:39 /usr/bin/make* When I ran”ls -1 /user/bin/make” and “ls -1 /user/bin/xcrun” I got back “root wheel 167072 Jan 22 00:42 /usr/bin/make” and “root wheel 166544 Jan 22 00:42 /usr/bin/xcrun” From that I thought I had “make” and “xcrun” but neither of the responses had the “-rwxr-xr-x” before the “1 root—-“ as in your result. Since I am missing the “-rwxr-xr-x”, does that mean I don’t have “make” and “xcrun” installed? Again, I appreciate your help and patience and am sorry it is taking so long to understand this. > On Feb 10, 2022, at 12:43, John Ralls <jra...@ceridwen.us> wrote: > > Dennis, > > I guess you missed the line "making the obvious substitution" right after the > Xcode-select line, or the substitution isn't that obvious.
