Rebuild of Debian using Clang 3.9, 4.0 and 5.0
tldr: The percentage of failure is decreasing, Clang support is improving but there is a long way to go.
The goal of this initiative is to rebuild Debian using Clang as a compiler instead of gcc. I have been doing this analysis for the last 6 years.
Recently, we rebuilt the archive of the Debian archive with Clang 3.9.1 (July 6th), 4.0.1 (July 6th) and 5.0 rc2 (August 20th).
For various reasons, we didn't perform a rebuild since June 2016 with version 3.8. Therefor, we took the opportunity to do three over the last month.

AF3e status, 22 August 2017
Your irregular “Absolute FreeBSD” status report!
It’s at 123,700 words. 12 of 26 chapters exist as first drafts. (Yes, the last report said 7 of 24. I can’t count.) Two more chapters are partially done. One of those partially-done chapters, on “Pre-Install Considerations,” won’t be done until I finish the whole book. I keep going back to add tidbits to it. It’s complete, except when I find something else I have to add to it.

The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility. |
