Not exactly "xcode" command line tools, but two CLTs, yes.

If Xcode already installed command line tools, then what location did the downloaded pkg file from Apple developer install the command line tools too? /Library/Developer/CommandLineToolsÄid this leave me with 2 versions of the xcode command line tools on my system? What's the use of having Xcode install the xcode command line tools when opening, if we have to re-install them from pkg anyway to get command line programs to read it? What did the additional pkg installation do on my computer? Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/DeveloperĪdditionally which -a xcode-select also only returns /usr/bin/xcode-select. Running xcode-select -p outputs the following, as many people have already noted: Question: if Xcode already installed command line tools, then what location did the downloaded pkg file from Apple developer install the command line tools too? Did this leave me with 2 versions of the xcode command line tools on my system? The gui installer finished with no errors. So I downloaded the pkg file from Apple Developer and reinstalled the command line tools with that pkg file as the command line install xcode-select -install didn't work. However, as documented NUMEROUS times on stack overflow, Homebrew was not recognizing my xcode command line tools (CLT: N/A). In my Xcode preferences, in the locations section, command line tools read Xcode 12.0 (12A7209) and below it the path /Applications/Xcode.app. Initially I installed the xcode command line tools by prompt when opening Xcode.
