Just a as follow up, I installed that Xcode 11.4, ran the previous script
and it looks like it installed properly. HOWEVER, I still cannot connect to
my SQL database.  Also, by doing that, my Mac mobile
development environment disappeared.  I have since uninstalled 11.4 and
went back to 10.1.

Beyond frustrating... I must be getting old ;
