I build libreoffice 7 with gcc and without clang, which I do not have installed. I also do not have skia installed. It generates checking whether to build Skia... yes checking for clang... no configure: WARNING: Clang compiler not found. Takes about an hour on my i5-8600 for make build-nocheck. Clearly they may change this in future but this suggests that clang need not be required by the book. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
