Hi List
The recommended package for Mesa include:
- LLVM-3.5.1 (required for Gallium3D r300 and radeonsi drivers..)
What's not clear to me: does this mean i have to install llvm including clang
and Compiler RT, or is llvm alone sufficient?
Kind regards
Tim
clang is listed as an optional download on llvm, meaning it's not required for
anything.
Where it can optionally be used, it's explicitly noted "(with clang)".
That's true, but if you are going to build llvm, you might as well do the
optional parts at the same time. The only reason I can think of to not do the
optional parts is if you are trying to build a minimal system.

It's not really a small package to build and cleang nearly doubles
the build time so I can understand why people try to avoid it.
Not everybody has latest hardware.
Yes, it is required for some things, the BLFS page says "You will need
to remove r300 and radeonsi from the list if you did not install
elfutils and LLVM"
Yes, and the reason I asked is that llvm and clang require quite a lot
of time and space (1.1 GB in the build directory), so I thought I might
avoid some of that, as I'm building in a moderate qemu vm. But anyway, I
build the whole llvm/clang stuff now. I try to build a rather minimal
system currently, but as a friend wants java and java requires cups and
X11 and Mesa, it suddenly turns out not-so small....
Kind regards
Tim
