Hi guys, just updated Xcode to 13.2 via Mac App Store.

I installed the additional components, and my project won't compile anymore : Xcode just tells me "Internal error: missingPackageDescriptionModule - Resolving Package Graph Failed" when attempting to build. None of the Swift packages used within my app seems to build, because "Package resolution errors must be fixed before building".

Already attempted to clean derived data, reset Swift package caches and update package versions to no avail.

Guess I'll try re-installing Xcode but... does anyone else have the same issue ?

Using an M1 Mac and just updated to Monterey 12.1 if that's relevant.

Thank you !

Xcode 13.2.1, released today, addresses this issue:

Resolved an issue where the Mac App Store version of Xcode failed during package resolution with the error Internal error: missingPackageDescriptionModulewhen using Swift packages either standalone or as dependencies in an Xcode project or workspace. (86435800) (FB9807887)

This update is available through the Mac App Store, as well as a direct download on the Apple Developer website.

^^^ Exactly, what's a big deal ? Xcode that was bundled with the OS update is flawed, Getting the fresh one directly fixes it.

Could it be an issue with certificates, access rights?

Same for me.

I have really difficult to accept from Apple such a painful application to use on a daily basis and especially after an update. The latest version 13.2 (13C90) gives me an internal error: missingPackageDesciptionModule, which simply makes the application unusable. And here is a day to pass the time to find a solution without much help and excuse on behalf of Apple.

Another bunch of gigabytes ..... Apple please wake up

It's a shame : you made this trash. you failed to screen it before release. the trash is not fixed after 2 days.

I'm also facing the same problem. Exactly as described, I updated Xcode to 13.2 via Mac App Store and its additional components.

After having XTools fail from the app store, after some searching i was able to find the download version in the Developers Section.

It took a very long time to install, and afterwords, crashed upon launch. I'm now reinstalling again, but am not too optimistic about this.

I had the same issue:

Internal error: missing PackageDescriptionModule

My current system:

  • MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)
  • macOS Monterey 12.1
  • Xcode 13.2

I downloaded Xcode 13.2 from the developer page as advised on the first page of this forum and this fixed the issue. Hoping the AppStore version gets fixed soon.

Running into this as well. I downloaded the xib from developer site and it fixed it, but then I quit Xcode, reopened it and the error came back!

Replacing it with a fresh copy works each time, but definitely looking for a solution to this!
