oh, thanks for clarifying that!

> LLVM is a set of (mostly static) libraries used to build compilers. Clang / Apple's "LLVM Compiler" is a compiler built on LLVM. Once you use LLVM to create a compiler, you do not have to distribute LLVM with that compiler, and Apple does not. And wisely so, because there's no good reason for a set of general development tools to distribute a compiler construction kit.

Yes, in the original thread on KDEVELOP-USER Milian hinted this out to me at midday as well.


So, I’ll try to install llvm-3.* and see whether that works!
:-)

Thanks again,
Marko
