Hi,
When I install a beta, I do a custom install into a separate folder to the latest release version. I have several old beta installs.
How do I uninstall the old custom versions of Xcode?
Can I just trash the folder?
Our do I need to use Terminal?
The release notes suggest to use this:
$ sudo /Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
But will this just uninstall my original official release version 3.2?
Thanks.
If you have multiple Developer folders, you can drag any of them to the trash without damaging the others. Developer folders are completely standalone.
Installing Developer Tools from the download image can also install tools in /usr for Unix-style and makefile-based development. The uninstall-devtools script removes these as well. That, also, should not affect remaining Developer folders.
From the release notes:
Throughout this document <Xcode> refers to the path in which the Developer Tools
Essentials components are installed.
...
To uninstall iPhone SDK and Xcode developer tools on the boot volume along with the
<Xcode> directory, from a Terminal window type:
$ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
