Add llvm-config to distribution
clin1234 opened this issue · 1 comments
I'm trying to compile a Rust package, specifically ClangQL, that relies on a crate that, in turn, relies on a few features not included by default:
The following warnings were emitted during compilation:
warning: clang-sys@1.8.1: could not execute `llvm-config` one or more times, if the LLVM_CONFIG_PATH environment variable is set to a full path to valid `llvm-config` executable it will be used to try to find an instance of `libclang` on your system: "couldn't execute `llvm-config --prefix` (path=llvm-config) (error: program not found)"
error: failed to run custom build command for `clang-sys v1.8.1`
Caused by:

error: failed to compile `clangql v0.6.0 (https://github.com/AmrDeveloper/ClangQL#7e4e2add)`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `C:\Users\0BAC~1\AppData\Local\Temp\cargo-install7y9kS3`.
To reuse those artifacts with a future compilation, set the environment variable `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` to that path.
Sorry, in most cases, if something requires llvm-config
, it usually also intends to compile and link against the Clang/LLVM libraries - so it probably wouldn't be enough to just add the lone llvm-config
binary, but it would also require including all the headers and link libraries. That increases the size of the distribution packages quite significantly.
It's quite straightforward to try this out for yourself, though, add --full-llvm
to the invocation of build-cross-tools.sh
(or the invocations of build-all.sh
to have it included for the unix packages) in .github/workflows/build.yml
, enable github actions on your fork of the repo, and push this modification to a branch in your fork.
