#29171 closed defect (fixed)

MacPorts clang shouldn't override system clang

Reported by: howarth@… Owned by: mfeiri
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: lang Cc: jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)
Port: clang

Description

The clang package currently overrides the system clang. The installed MacPorts clang executable should be renamed as mp-clang so as to not block the proper usage of Apple's clang.

This was not an issue before the release of Xcode 4.0 but I agree that the new situation is not optimal. I previously tried to use "--program-suffix=-mp" in configure.args like we do in the gcc Portfiles, but this flags seems to get ignored by the clang build system. For now I can just rename the binaries in a post-destroot phase. To stay in line with our gcc compilers I'd prefer clang-mp and clang++-mp.

This is fixed by the versioned clang ports, right?

Yes. And you can use 'port select clang ...' to choose the default one as well
