- Synopsis
- Generate Pkg-Config configuration file for LLVM
- Description
Building the
llvm-base
package is fragile due to its configuration process. It would be much simpler, if LLVM would support pkg-config since this is nicely integrated in Cabal. However, LLVM developers do not seem to care much about it: http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=9405. If we are lucky we get pkg-config support in Debian Linux. Until this comes true, you can use this program. It callsllvm-config
and writes its output to a PC file.llvm-pkg-config
calls default
llvm-config
and writes the generated file to standard output.sudo llvm-pkg-config --install
installs the PC file at a default location. This should be the standard task to perform.
llvm-pkg-config --llvm-config=/custom/path/to/llvm-config
if you have multiple versions of LLVM installed you may choose an
llvm-config
other than the default one.You can check, whether your config file is found by
pkg-config
usingpkg-config --modversion llvm
It should show the version number of LLVM you want to use.
If you install
llvm.pc
in a non-standard location you may need to extend the search path forpkg-config
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=your-llvm-pc-path:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
The package also includes the bash script
make-pkg-config.sh
that should also generate thellvm.pc
file.- Author
