When I try to run mkvirtualenv with python 2.6, I get the error:

Could not call install_name_tool -- you must have Apple's development tools installed

I've installed Xcode. (It's actually installed, not just downloaded and waiting to be installed).

The command: which install_name_tool yields me nothing. Why can't I call it?

If you're using Xcode 4.3, you'll have to install the Command Line Tools package, available under the Downloads tab in the preferences.

    Yes! That fixed the install_name_tool! Thank you! I'm still getting this error though: ImportError: No module named virtualenvwrapper.hook_loader Look familiar? – oaklandrichie Feb 17 '12 at 22:24
  • wxf! I need a developer account to do that? that process takes N steps of bureaucracy... i just want to code! Anyone knows if its possible to install Command Line Tools without dev account and/or if on XCode 4.2 should work? – Luchux Mar 27 '12 at 00:41
