Problems on Mavericks with only Command Line Tools installed

[OliverJAsh]

I have installed the Command Line Tools:

$ xcode-select --print-path
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools

However, when anything tries to use node-gyp, I get the following error:

$ npm install bcrypt
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bcrypt
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bcrypt
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bindings/1.0.0
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bindings/1.0.0

> bcrypt@0.7.7 install /Users/Oliver/Development/sbscribe/node_modules/bcrypt
> node-gyp rebuild

xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance

On Mountain Lion it was possible to use this without installing the whole of Xcode, rather just the Command Line Tools. Is it possible to do this on Mavericks? How can I get it working?

N.B. This is on a clean install of Mavericks.

I also have this problem, don't really want to install xcode.

Had this same error installing contextify as pert of jsdom on a clean install of Mavericks. Unfortunately the workaround was to install Xcode.

Installing the latest version of command line tools for mavericks fixed the issue for me.

Hmmm...Still not working for me.

👍 Latest Command Line Tools (late October) don't work for me either

Everyone please try node-gyp v0.12.1 please. This is hopefully fixed.

Still getting the error.

gyp ERR! node-gyp -v v0.12.1

I'm getting reports that this is still an issue. Reopening.

However, it's an upstream gyp issues. Has anybody reported an issue on the gyp issue tracker that we can reference for here?
