[cfe-users] Trying to build clang but don't appear to have it in the source

[Iain Barnett]

Well, I did that *after* building LLVM because the instructions say it
should be in the download.

Now I'm (attempting, but failing) to build Clang from the latest svn
commit, but as I say, I'd *much* prefer to use a release copy.

Regards,
Iain

Thanks for responding Larry.

Well, I did that *after* building LLVM because the instructions say it
should be in the download.

Now I'm (attempting, but failing) to build Clang from the latest svn
commit, but as I say, I'd *much* prefer to use a release copy, something
tagged, versioned, not from the master branch…

The LLVM in the download compiled fine (after a quick patch). I just want
Clang now.
