Bug#981679: kdevelop: Clang plugin breaks when clang package bumps version
Package: kdevelop
Version: 4:5.6.1-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: brendon@quantumfurball.net
Dear Maintainer,
The Clang plugin seems to be responsible for advanced syntax highlighting and
probably other features. I just updated packages on my system and noticed these
features no longer work. I saw a few copies of the below in the kdevelop output
to console:
kdevplatform.shell: Could not load plugin "kdevclangsupport" , it reported the
error: "The clang builtin include path
\"/usr/lib/llvm-11/lib/clang/11.0.0/include\" is invalid (missing cpuid.h
header).\nTry setting the KDEV_CLANG_BUILTIN_DIR environment variable manually
to fix this.\nSee also: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=393779"; Disabling
the plugin now.
So the path it needs is hard-coded and versioned, for 11.0.0 in the present
binary. My latest update pulled in Clang 11.0.1. If I set the
KDEV_CLANG_BUILTIN_DIR variable correctly and run kdevelop, then it works.
The KDE bug linked above does seem related, but ends with closure despite more
run-time checking being a TODO. Until that's implemented, it seems the Clang
plugin has a hard-ish version dependency on Clang, and the kdevelop package
must be rebuilt when Clang updates, or the user has to employ the environment
variable workaround.
Peace,
Brendon
