Hello Fernando,
Absolutely no problem with you accepting it. It is after all in the main
book area. I just wanted to save you a bit of time by checking it.
With regards to autotools, as this is going to go into this release, I
really do not like the thought of having to go through and convert the
build instructions to using cmake. It really is not just a case of
copying and pasting from the CMakeCache.txt file as there is a better way
to post it than with boole=YES/NO.
Also we know what we get with the current instructions with regards to the
optimization. At this point I really have no clue as to how to use either
sed or awk to add that line to the two mentioned files. I will hunt
google, but if you already know it would be great to have it.
Please do add that patch before you start building as it really will save
you a few hours.
Do you know off hand how many packages throughout the book actually use
llvm and clang?
I want to test that they actually work with this version. We really do
not want any surprises down the track.
Of course I know about Mesa. It is entirely possible that the poster of
this ticket has not actually tested building either this application or
Mesa itself against it. Nor do we know if they are using 32 or 64bit. It
may be that the patch for mesa only applies to a 64bit system, as the
patch I found only applies to a 32bit.
Regards,
Christopher.
