Package: clang
Version: 2.9-10
Severity: normal
I wanted to install clang-2.9-10 from Sid.
I have llvm-2.9 installed from Sid.
When I selected clang for installation in Synaptic it reported that cpp-4.6
gcc-4.6 g++-4.6 and libstdc++-6.4.6-dev were required.
Unfortunately, due to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=630441
"g++-4.6 miscompilation"
I can't use g++-4.6.
I'm guessing that because it no longer requires llvm, it's now a plugin for
gcc/g++ 4.6.
Until the above bug is fixed the only option I can see is to provide two
versions that conflict:
1. clang-gcc
2. clang-llvm
The current situation also prevents using llvm/clang as an alternative for
gcc/g++
