I am trying to migrate my Angular application from v4.4.6 to v14.0.4. I have conducted the following steps successfully :

 % rm -rf node_modules
 % npm update --loglevel verbose
 % npm install --loglevel verbose
 % nvm install 8.9.4
 % nvm use 8.9.4
 % nvm alias default 8.9.4
 % npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
 % npm install -g @angular/[email protected] --loglevel verbose
 % npm install --save-dev @angular/[email protected] --loglevel verbose

But once I tried to run the following command line, I got this error :

 % NG_DISABLE_VERSION_CHECK=1 npx @angular/[email protected] update @angular/[email protected] --loglevel verbose
    xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance

I double checked xCode and have found it already installed on my mac.
