Did he follow the
necessary steps
? I'm guessing he did not install Xcode and/or the Xcode command line tools first.

Yes he installed XCode 11.6 from the store but "sudo xcode-select --install" install "command line tool beta for xcode 12"
He'll try to install xcode and command line tool from ADC
Thanks

Just an up to mention that after some system update, I had to update Xcode and run the command lines again to get it working.

I have fixed it by following
https://wiki.freepascal.org/Mac_Installation_FAQ
> tweak the /private/etc/fpc.cfg file, after installing the Xcode command line tools, by adding:
```
-Fl/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib
-XR/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk
```
