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.

Any particular reason that shared libs are not built?

frankivo commented on 2013-12-23 09:10 (UTC)

pkgver() { svn info http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project|egrep ^Revision|awk {'print $2'} } No need for manual checking the revision and updating the PKGBUILD anymore.

Okay great. If I have time before that, I will fix it but I probably won't have time before that. I will delay uploading the new version until it's working again. Thanks!

@Krejzi: Oops totally missed the headers files. Everything should be fine now. As for the merge of clang-svn in this PKGBUILD, I don't mind if the current maintainer is okay with that. Let me know if you encounter any other issues.

Krejzi commented on 2013-12-10 13:54 (UTC)

Hello, would you care to merge with llvm-svn package? It would avoid duplication and some of us would need llvm-svn with clang for R600/Radeonsi OpenCL support. Thanks in advance!

Krejzi commented on 2013-12-10 13:50 (UTC)

Sorry for multiple comments, but this still misses what I asked for - two header files available in llvm in [extra] which would allow me to build and use lib32-llvm-svn package correctly.

Krejzi commented on 2013-12-10 13:43 (UTC)

Hm, now we would just need clang and compiler-rt built from the same source so we could utilize R600/Radeonsi OpenCL support in Mesa. Would you care adding clang-svn to the package if the maintainer agrees to merge clang-svn into this package?

Krejzi commented on 2013-12-10 13:41 (UTC)

why are there two options() lines?

cbab commented on 2013-12-10 13:30 (UTC)

Updated with suggestion from @oliv. @Krejzi let me know if you have any other issue with the package.

xdegaye commented on 2013-12-09 20:26 (UTC)

@mtahmed I will check those problems in r196787 first and then update PKGBUILD with `svn update -r <good_revision>`. This should take a couple of days. Nice that the pull request went smoothly with github, learning every day :-)
