waf configuration failed

[jerta]

I'm trying to compile on Tuxedos (Ubuntu-based) and I'm facing an issue.

Thanks for the report! The check for LLVM libraries (needed for extensibility with Faust) is failing, meaning you probably don't have your system's LLVM development package installed. I use plain Debian and the package is llvm-dev, probably the same for you.

The line Checking for '' indicates a problem with the wscript -- I didn't provide a descriptive string for the LLVM check. I will leave this ticket open until I can fix that.
