[lldb-dev] Build failure on OS X

I believe if you select "Current MacOSX" instead of the 10.9 SDK, you should be able to build. Or you can remove the Python.framework that is in the SDK. I believe the problem is there is a Python.framework in the SDK, but it is empty (no headers). If you remote the empty Python.framework from the SDK, it should fall back to the installed version.

The build instructions seem to suggest that this should be straightforward, but after selecting the "lldb-tool" scheme and starting the build as described, after a while I get a build failure with "'Python/Python.h' file not found', referring to the source file lldb-python.h.
