Thank you for your quick reply, Michel.
The ppa I use is llvm.org's ppa (llvm.org/apt/) for Ubuntu 14.04 so I guess=
it
will just be plain upstream with no additional patches.
With regard to compiling, I have two chroot environments, one is i386 and t=
he
other one is amd64, which I use to recompile mesa (from oibaf's ubuntu ppa)
with llvm 3.5 via dpkg-buildpackage (previously editing debian/rules so that
the config looks for llvm 3.5 rather than llvm 3.4).
I have tried to compile the original tar.gz packages (dpkg-buildpackage) fr=
om
the llvm.org ppa within those two chroot environments but I just can't get =
them
to work (config fails complaining about llvm tools, if I remember correctly,
even though I downloaded all the tar.gz packages in the ppa and among which
there was a package named llvm extra tools or something like that). Using
apt-source results in obtaining the llvm 3.4 source tarball from Ubuntu's
repositories, not the one from llvm.org, so that does not help either. I th=
ink
that manually compiling llvm is a bit too much for me (I am not that advanc=
ed),
so I'll try to get the dpkg-buildpackage working. If that doesn't work I gu=
ess
I'll give a look at manually compiling.
I have never used apitrace either but I will try to find instructions and g=
ive
it a go.
I currently don't have too much free time due to real life (TM) but I'll tr=
y to
address the llvm compilation (and bisect) and apitrace test. I'll also check
newer llvm builds from the ppa in order to check if the problem has been
solved.
