Hi, Note the error is not specific to gcc. Macports clang has the same problem.

The issue is both macports clang and gcc rely (by default) on /usr/include
being present, and this is no longer present by default with Xcode 11, and even
if you previously had it was likely wiped out with the last update.
Note, with 10.14 at least (*) you can add back /usr/include by following the
instructions in
https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/337940/why-is-usr-include-missing-i-have-xcode-and-command-line-tools-installed-moja
<https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/337940/why-is-usr-include-missing-i-have-xcode-and-command-line-tools-installed-moja>
or, as you say below, explicitly giving the include path in some way, such as
the suggestion below.
cheers Chris
(*) The package to add back /usr/include currently does not exist in 10.15
beta, so unless it reappears come final release this is going to be more of a
problem there….
