Hi List, On Ubuntu 14.04, trying out Swift from the REPL fails for me when Swift is unable to find the SwiftShims module. All other aspects of installation -- Clang 3.6, libicu-dev -- are correct as far as I can tell.
Putting `swift` in `strace` reveals that it tries to find and open /usr/local/lib/swift/linux/x86_64/SwiftShims.swiftmodule and, failing to find it, errors out. However, shortly thereafter it finds /usr/local/lib/swift/shims/module.map and even manages to load the module text. I've included ~80 lines of relevant `strace` output at this Gist: https://gist.github.com/solidsnack/d902a761877b0f797835 One aspect of this that puzzles me is why it only searches for the module in one place when there are potentially many it could be loading it from. Another is why it works for some people (many of whom are posting interesting things to this list) but not others. I would appreciate it so much if someone could help me to get the Swift distribution working on Ubuntu 14.04.
