When you have this package installed applications that are built against repo-llvm/clang WILL fail unless they are rebuild against this package.

This includes QTCreator, kdevelop , mesa, intel-compute-runtime, gnome-builder to name a few.

Archlinux currently has 3 llvm git implementations

  1. This package

    • It aims to provide a full llvm/clang compiler environment for development purposes.
    • Supports cross-compiling , bindings for external stuff (python, ocaml etc) , and some things not in extra-llvm.
    • intended to be used with archlinux core,extra & community repos
    • CONFLICTS with extra llvm/clang packages
    • Currently there's no repo with binary versions

  2. llvm-minimal-git

    • focuses on providing stuff needed for AUR mesa-git. Doesn't support cross-compiling or any bindings for external stuff like ocaml & python.
    • intended to be used with archlinux core,extra & community repos
    • compatible with extra llvm/clang packages
    • no repo with binary versions

  3. packages created & maintained by Lordheavy, an arch developer

    • intended to be used with archlinux testing repos
    • sometimes has problems on systems where testing repos are disabled
    • uses same package structure as llvm/clang in official repos
    • source
    • binary versions in LordHeavys unoffical repo

I've looked good at clang-trunk , llvm-svn, repo llvm/clang packages and think this package is now on route to become a worthy successor to llvm-svn .

  • llvm-libs-git holds the runtime libraries.

    It conflicts with the repo llvm-libs package. This is the only way to make sure the llvm linker from git is used, and that's needed for a full dev environment.

  • llvm-git

    has llvm , clang, compiler-rt, ocaml & python bindings, polly , lld , lldb .

The Package now uses a new environment variable to make ninja behave, NINJAFLAGS. If you want to use it adjust the snippet below to your desired values and add it to makepkg.conf.

Incase you are satisfied with ninja defaults you don't need to do anything.

# Add to makepkg.conf
# limit ninja to 20 jobs
# requires special code in PKGBUILD
# see ninja --help for additonal options
NINJAFLAGS="-j20"

The check() function fails rather often, but I do suggest to build with them. If build fails due to test failure you can add --nocheck to skip the tests.

Updated PKGBUILD as per @zman0900 gist. Thanks! I will disown this package since I don't have that much time to properly maintain it anymore. Thanks to everyone and their suggestions.

zman0900 commented on 2014-02-25 06:34 (UTC)

I got impatient so I went ahead and updated the PKGBUILD based on the repo one so it will build the clang packages too. https://gist.github.com/zman0900/9203522

@MrBushido If you look at the PKGBUILD (line shown below), swig is already a build dependency. Is that what you meant? `makedepends=('svn' 'cmake' 'swig')`

MrBushido commented on 2014-02-03 09:03 (UTC)

Requires swig as (build?) dependency https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/swig/

I'd suggest that you simply add clang packaging here and I'll redirect people from clang-svn to this package. If they both were to merge, people won't know where to look for clang-svn since aur doesn't support split packages.

What's worse - I cannot figure out where to put --enable-shared ;(

Lone_Wolf commented on 2014-01-29 15:20 (UTC)

namcap reports the llvm-svn documentation is installed in a non-standard directory, /usr/docs . The llvm repo packge uses this in prepare() to fix that : # Fix docs installation directory sed -i 's:\$(PROJ_prefix)/docs/llvm:$(PROJ_prefix)/share/doc/llvm:' \ Makefile.config.in

cbab commented on 2014-01-28 16:57 (UTC)

@Krejzi: Yep sure we can merge both packages.

Krejzi commented on 2014-01-14 16:21 (UTC)

Are you still okay with merging clang-svn into this package? I am now maintainer of clang-svn.

schulmar commented on 2013-12-28 17:37 (UTC)

@richard_vock I brushed up the PKGBUILD from llvmlinux-toolchain-svn-git and obviously forgot to remove these dependencies/conflicts (so far I had no problem with it). I removed it from the conflicts and provides part.
