Unable to build solang

[spino17]

I am following the docs: https://solang.readthedocs.io/en/v0.3.3/installing.html#step-1-install-the-llvm-libraries. I have set the solang-llvm to the PATH. I am getting the below error while cargo build

Please stop opening new issues, re-open existing ones if you really need to.

What is the output of clang --version? It should be:

$ clang --version
clang version 15.0.4 (https://github.com/solana-labs/llvm-project.git 33c3629caa59b59d8f585736a4a5194aa9e9377d)
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /home/sean/build/llvm15.0/bin/.

Thanks @seanyoung for the reply. I am really sorry to make the new issue, I didn't know that I can reopen a closed issue, won't happen again. The output of clang --version is:

Apple clang version 14.0.3 (clang-1403.0.22.14.1)
Target: arm64-apple-darwin23.5.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin

which is not same as above output. Let me know if there is more information needed. Thanks again for the help.

@spino17 As mentioned in prior issues, you should use the solana llvm-fork and add it to path. please use the latest binary from: https://github.com/hyperledger/solang-llvm/releases

[spino17]

@salaheldinsoliman yeah I used that also, it is not working. Also I am not understanding how setting llvm to solang fork would fill up target directory whose error is coming.

[seanyoung]

You need to add the custom llvm build to your path. See here how to do that: https://superuser.com/questions/697496/how-do-i-add-a-path-to-my-mac-os-x

[spino17]

yes, I have set the LLVM fork to the PATH and able to check it from llvm-config --version. Still I am getting below error:
