Thanks to everyone and especially fanquake for the help. Here we go… this is a bug continued from ./configure when installing brew install llvm
i get a string of this::
0
1==> llvm: stable 14.0.6, HEAD [keg-only]
2Next-gen compiler infrastructure
3https://llvm.org/
4Not installed
5From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/llvm.rb
6License: Apache-2.0 with LLVM-exception
7==> Dependencies
8Build: cmake ✔, swig ✔
9Required: python@3.10 ✔, libffi ✔
10==> Options
11--HEAD
12 Install HEAD version
13==> Caveats
14To use the bundled libc++ please add the following LDFLAGS:
15 LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/llvm/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/opt/llvm/lib"
llvm is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local, because macOS already provides this software and installing another version in parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.
i feel like i am getting nowhere . still unable to configure the bitcoin/bitcoin git…… its heartwrenching, but I am trying diligently and patiently to fix my issues. is there something wrong with my mac itself. it is very old 2011….. over ten years old!! very outdated. running Mac OS 10.13.6
do i need to go ahead and usebrew info llvm
’s out put of /usr/local/opt/llvm/lib or what sense it is not symlinked… ?? and just use that LDFLAG as the path? it says it can’t symlink? should i use the keg’s path /usr/local/opt/llvm or the other, or will this cause problems. i will get this thing worked out eventually. just need a little nudge in the right direction one more time.
