Xcode-select –install fails for homebrew cannot use command line tools MacOS 13.1
So I had xcode command line tools installed already.
xcode-select --version
confirmed that it was there. However, installing the new version of python via HomeBrew failed saying it was not installed. Running
xcode-select --install
failed to install without further info as to why
xcode-select --reset followed by xcode-select --install failed
removing the xcode command line tools directory failed…
Manually downloading and reinstalling command line tools from the pkg .dmg file worked perfectly (but does require a free Apple Developer account).
xcode command line tools download from Apple
It reinstalled the same version and now command line tools works.
