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"  :o 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
```
