[lldb-dev] Bad state of release 3.7.1?

[David Jones via lldb-dev]

 r246756 has a fix, if you are comfortable applying it. It's a large patch.
In theory it should back-port but I have not tried it.

The API gap from 3.7.1 to 3.8 is quite minimal, so you should be able to
get your applications running with 3.8 rather easily if they are running on
3.7.1 already.
