 Priority:  Normal                   |   Milestone:                      
Component:  ports                    |     Version:  1.7.1               
 Keywords:                           |        Port:  llvm-gcc42, pure-gen
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
 I cannot update pure-gen to 0.5 or later because it now requires the llvm-
 gcc program, but the llvm-gcc42 port does not provide a program of that
 name. Here is what pure-gen 0.7 says:

 {{{
 pure -c xxpure-gen.pure -o pure-gen
 llvmc: Can't find program 'llvm-gcc'
 make: *** [pure-gen] Error 1
 }}}

 When I [http://groups.google.com/group/pure-
 lang/browse_thread/thread/897c66fc6d969c6a told the author of pure] that
 in MacPorts the program is called llvm-gcc-4.2, he said that was a bad
 idea. He said llvmc (part of llvm) will try to call "llvm-gcc" by that
 name exactly. If that's true, then llvm-gcc42 should install an executable
 of that name exactly.
