Compiling packages from source under Mojave (10.14.x)
Hi Simon: here goes. I was running 10.13.xx, xx being whatever was the most recent version. I was compiling packages from source no problem. Also, the Upgrade Section of App Store was telling me there was an incompatible version of software available, which was a new version of Xcode. I upgraded to 10.14.4, by the usual means, did nothing special. Upgrades in App Store said there was a new version of Xcode (among other things). So installed that. Ran Xcode, so that it would install "Other Components" which it often does with a new version. To be certain I had the Command lIne Tools, in a terminal I ran: sudo xcode-select --install Next time I ran RStudio, two package upgrades were from source (I apologize I don't remember which packages). Compilation failed with errors of couldn't find the appropriate header files. Ran the command in my note. Restarted RStudio, asked it to check for package updates, same packages appeared, compilation went fine. I am running Xcode 10.2 HTH, -Roy

I'm on a Mojave system and don't see any issues - this will likely depend on your Xcode installation. Does it mean some Xcode version is lacking headers? Which version, how did you install it? Thanks, Simon

I was pretty certain my Makevars files was correct, as I had been compiling before the upgrade successfully, and the compilers hadn't changed. The following is in some of the docs, but just in case it helps, cause it took me awhile to find it, after installing the Command Line Tools for Xcode, you should run: sudo installer -pkg \ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg \ -target / and voila packages that had failed to compile just a few minutes ago compiled successfully.
