I understand that. There are only 4 shared llvm libraries by default. Others are meant to be static, even when --enable-shared is passed. Devs decided it's better that way and you are on your own if you decide to override it. And as even Bruce said, clang fails to build that way. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
