Source: ccls Version: 0.20190823-4 Severity: normal tags: patch hello, after having a deeper look on ccls (not so deep, apologizes if I made a mistake), I discovered that upstream cmake file, uses clang -print-resource-dir to find out the include location, and this seems to be just working correctly clang -print-resource-dir /usr/lib/llvm-9/lib/clang/9.0.0
./obj-x86_64-linux-gnu/CMakeFiles/ccls.dir/build.make: /usr/bin/c++ $(CXX_DEFINES) -DCLANG_RESOURCE_DIRECTORY="R\"(/usr/lib/llvm-9/lib/clang/9.0.0)\"" $(CXX_INCLUDES) $(CXX_FLAGS) -S /ccls-0.20190823/src/utils.cc -o CMakeFiles/ccls.dir/src/utils.cc.s so, why can't we just drop all that code? Also, this: CLANG_RESOURCE_DIR := /usr/include/clang/$(CLANG_VER) CCLS_SUBSTVARS += -Vccls:Recommends=$(shell dpkg-query -S $(CLANG_RESOURCE_DIR) | sed -e 's/: .*//') Why recommend libclang-common-9-dev? can't you just use libclang-dev as runtime dependency? Do you want to be sure the same clang as the one used in build is picked up? In this case I guess it is fine to do it, but since it is just a recommends... a simpler way might be useful thanks Gianfranco
