I installed Clang 3.6
following the instructions here (the latest version in Ubuntu repository is 3.5):
# to retrieve the archive signature
wget -O - http://llvm.org/apt/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key|sudo apt-key add -
# to install all packages
apt-get install clang-3.6 clang-3.6-doc libclang-common-3.6-dev libclang-3.6-dev libclang1-3.6 libclang1-3.6-dbg libllvm-3.6-ocaml-dev libllvm3.6 libllvm3.6-dbg lldb-3.6 llvm-3.6 llvm-3.6-dev llvm-3.6-doc llvm-3.6-examples llvm-3.6-runtime clang-modernize-3.6 clang-format-3.6 python-clang-3.6 lldb-3.6-dev
However, after the installation, man clang
says
No manual entry for clang
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.
but man clang-3.6
works. Also, neither man clang++
or man clang++-3.6
works. How do I make man clang
and man clang++
work and open the man page as it is already in the system? I also want to use the commands clang
and clang++
instead of clang-3.6
and clang++-3.6
.
Just create some symlinks:
sudo ln -s "$(command -v clang-3.6)" /usr/local/bin/clang
sudo ln -s "$(command -v clang++-3.6)" /usr/local/bin/clang++
sudo ln -s "$(man -w clang-3.6)" /usr/share/man/man1/clang.1.gz
The first two are for the clang
and clang++
commands, and the third for the manpage. If the manpages for clang
and clang++
are supposed to be the same, you can repeat it withclang++.1.gz
instead of clang.1.gz
.
And while you're at it, file a feature request with the package maintainers.
