Fedora 39: 2023-67f0f8d186 Moderate: Clang Segmentation Fault Update

fedora
Calendar Grey November 3, 2023
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The latest Fedora 39 update introduces clang version 17.0.2, which resolves a segmentation fault problem found in LLVM 17.0.2.
Update to LLVM 17.0.2

Summary

clang: noun

1. A loud, resonant, metallic sound.

2. The strident call of a crane or goose.

3. C-language family front-end toolkit.

The goal of the Clang project is to create a new C, C++, Objective C

and Objective C++ front-end for the LLVM compiler. Its tools are built

as libraries and designed to be loosely-coupled and extensible.

Install compiler-rt if you want the Blocks C language extension or to

enable sanitization and profiling options when building, and

libomp-devel to enable -fopenmp.
