Nubie feedback - can't build

[blakemcbride]

Greetings,

I am new to XL. Looks very interesting. I am running on a modern X86-64 Linux machine. I have run into the following two issues:

1. "configure" should be mode 777. I know it's not really used but making it mode 777 will make the system just build.
2. When I run make, I get:

/bin/bash: llvm-config: command not found

You need to have LLVM installed. I know the build should stop in that case, but I never bothered.

Alternatively, you can build interpreter-only with make COMPILER=none

[c3d]

Hey @blakemcbride, were you ever successful to compile with my recommendation?

[elviejo79]

For what is worth I was able to compile with make COMPILER=none.
Only 4 warnings.

Here is the run.
