Xcode Workspace "Internal error: missingPackageDescriptionModule"

Solution 1:

Apple is aware of the issue.

We're currently investigating this issue — thank you to those who have filed bug reports so far. To workaround this issue, please re-download Xcode 13.2 directly from the Downloads page.

Solution 2:

🎊 Fixed on v13.2.1 and you can download from here

Explaination

This bug is reported and the v13.2.1 AppStore version but As  Apple suggest here, you should download the Xcode manually from the developer center

Manual download of any Apple developer software

✅ The always working and preferred workaround!

Download directly from Apple:

Latest Release version or
Latest Beta version or
Any version you need and all other downloadable contents

Then extract and move it where you like. This has so many benefits compared to AppStore updates. (like the ability to resume download, not replacing the old one, not wasting hidden directories and etc.)

Note that you should use safari to download it.

⚠️ Important note for developers like me!

The page you’re looking for can’t be found.

If you The page you’re looking for can’t be found message, you may need to use a VPN if you are in a country that the US sanctioned like mine. Because Apple is blocking some IP address ranges.

Solution 3:

If you’re using Swift packages either standalone or as dependencies in an Xcode project or workspace, the Mac App Store version of Xcode fails during package resolution with the error “Internal error: missingPackageDescriptionModule.” (86435800)

Workaround: Download Xcode 13.2 directly from the Apple Developer website.

Solution 4:

I just got the issues late at night after Xcode updated on its own while I was working on my project, which was not a cool surprise. It appears to be affecting all dependencies. You are not alone in this it's affecting everyone. I did what they recommended and downloaded Xcode directly from the Apples developer site and it fixed all my issues super happy right now!!!!!!!
