[lldb-dev] unable to build lldb 3.8

[Pavel Labath via lldb-dev]

Hi Peter,

thank you for the report, you are writing to the right list.

Unfortunately, I am not aware of anyone in LLDB, who actually uses the
"make install" functionality, so it's very well possible that it's
broken. I can take a look at it, but I won't be able to do that for a
couple of weeks now. If you have some cmake experience you can try
digging around the lldb install scripts. I don't think the fix should
be difficult.

Until then, as a workaround I can recommend the following:
- if you just want to try out lldb, don't do a "make install", it
should run just fine from the build directory
- if you must do an "install", I guess you'll have to avoid checking
out lldb for now... :/

BTW, could you also send me the "tree diagram" of your build directory
as well? It might help me track the problem down when I get around to
it.

cheers,
pl
