I opened up my Xcode, and I have to admit: it's been awhile. To define "awhile": my version was version 4.1, and was a pre-App Store installation. Now, version 4.3.2 is the current version, so I wanted to update - but was unable to, since no update procedure is available anymore. Darnit!
OK, so let's go for a fresh start: uninstall the puppy, and start clean, from the official installer.
For those who want to know how to uninstall Xcode, for any reason, you can just open up a terminal, and enter this command:
<developer folder> is the directory where the developer tools are installed. By default, the path is /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools
If you are warned about using sudo, that's normal: you are executing a command as root on the system, which means that you have full power.
You are asked for your password: enter your password. No characters will appear, due to security: by the number of *, people looking over your shoulder could easier hack your password.
Uninstallation will run for a while, cleaning the entire developers tools. You can reinstall via the Mac App Store.
Fresh and clean!
