xcrun: error: developer tools not installed error during valgrind installation

I'm trying to install valgrind on my Mac (10.6.8). I've downloaded the latest valgrind version, valgrind-3.8.1, unzip it and ./configure works fine. When I tried make, got this error message:

xcrun: error: developer tools not installed; download from http://developer.apple.com
/usr/bin/mig: line 174: : command not found
mig: fatal: "<no name yet>", line -1: no SubSystem declaration
make[2]: *** [m_mach/mach_vmUser.c] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

I tried xcode-select (from this link: How can I fix this valgrind OS X 10.7.4 make error?) and got this message:

-bash: xcode-select: command not found

I guess I don't have xcode or xcode developer tools, I found both Xcode 3.2 and Xcode 3.2.1 Developer Tools in the apple developer site. I'm wondering which one should I install?

My feeling is this installation will solve the issue.

Thanks.

OK. I solved the problem after installing Xcode 3.2.1 and then update it to Xcode 3.2.6. T - olala

You can now get Xcode view the app store (free download). Feature of this is that it will notify you of updates. I think it's up to around 4.6.1 as of today, so what you're looking at is quite old.

Another alternative for valgrind is to get homebrew, and just do a brew install valgrind once it's up and running.
