What makes more sense: asking every PKGBUILD maintainer to add this condition or modifying your own makepkg.conf?

And if you change the default compiler, you should know what you're doing.

Adding a conditional check for this seriously isn't a big deal; the only 2 main compilers used on Linux are GCC and Clang - it's not like someone's going to come along and ask about MingW support.

This doesn't override GCC users, only fixes the variables necessary for those deciding they want Clang without making investigating why compilation doesn't work every time something doesn't build.

PKGBUILDs are not supposed to support every compiler.

It's up to you to add these variables in your environment.

Putting this at the top of the build function fixes compiling Xemu with clang:

    if [ "$CC" == "clang" ] || [ "$CXX" == "clang++" ]; then
        export CC=clang
        export CXX=clang++
        export CC_LD=lld
        export CXX_LD=lld
        export AR="/usr/bin/llvm-ar"

        ## The below are optional, but I use them:
        export LD="/usr/bin/ld.lld"
        export NM="/usr/bin/llvm-nm"
        export AS="/usr/bin/llvm-as"
        export RANLIB="/usr/bin/llvm-ranlib"
        export STRIP="/usr/bin/llvm-strip"
        export OBJCOPY="/usr/bin/llvm-objcopy"
    fi

Aaaaand, it did get removed, partially They kept the LD export but not exactly as it's required for Xemu as mentioned in the Github conversation

Not be overly negative but... it's stuff like this that makes me not want to contribute to the wiki :/

Neko-san commented on 2021-09-17 23:24 (UTC)

I just added it.

In my experience, contributing to the Arch Wiki just gets my additions removed but we'll see if it doesn't this time :/

abouvier commented on 2021-09-17 20:07 (UTC)

It's time to edit the wiki at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Clang to add your discoveries ;)

Neko-san commented on 2021-09-17 08:58 (UTC)

I mean, yeah, I did that but this info isn't in the Arch Wiki and anyone else happening upon it probably would have to goose-chase to find out :v

abouvier commented on 2021-09-17 06:22 (UTC) (edited on 2021-09-17 17:57 (UTC) by abouvier)

Why not add these variables/flags in your makepkg.conf file like you did for CC/CXX? :p

It will fix every PKGBUILD that you're building with clang+LTO.

Neko-san commented on 2021-09-16 05:59 (UTC)

@abouvier Apparently, exporting these variables:

https://github.com/mborgerson/xemu/issues/456#issuecomment-920591226

in the PKGBUILD fixes the LTO error.

Maybe add a detection handling for when Clang is used and when LTO is active?

I'd offer a suggestion but I'm not as experienced with understanding what makepkg does and doesn't like in these kinds of scenarios :V
