Cant install vite; command line issue?

[Stein-ErikG]

Hi,

Ive managed to install both grappolo and panorama, but i cant get vite to work. I have installed xcode and apropriate command line tools. If i paste "xcode-select -p" in terminal i get a path to Xcode.app/.... . If i run "xcode-select --install" i get: xcode-select: error: command line tools are already installed, use "Software Update" to install updates.

when i try to install:

This is a MacOS specific problem not something related to the vite package

Have you also installed gcc on your system, maybe with something like brew? It looks like it's using gcc to do the compilation, but then it can't find some of the header files installed by Xcode.

If you have indeed installed gcc try reinstalling it again.

You can find some additional info here, but it looks to me like the problem in your case is that R is not using the version of the compiler that's bundled with XCode but a separate gcc install

try (assuming you have brew installed)

brew install gcc

Hi, thank you for the quick reply.

Indeed, i lost both brew and gcc after updating to mojave. I reinstalled everything, but it still did not work. Then i did this:

navigate to /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg and run that package.

I managed to install after! Thank you:)
