can't build rust on mac with xcode 5 developer preview as the selected xcode

[cartazio]

see this info on the related brew ticket Homebrew/legacy-homebrew#20585

somehow even though i have a vanilla build of llvm / clang in my path, rust's build process is picking up the apple one instead...

Note that that isn't a Rust bug - Homebrew always uses Apple's compilers.

The specific issue from Rust's configure script:

configure: error: bad CLANG version: 5.0, need >=3.0svn

It looks like the compiler version check doesn't recognize Xcode 5's clang. The code from configure:

    case $CFG_CLANG_VERSION in
        (3.0svn | 3.0 | 3.1* | 3.2* | 3.3* | 3.4* )
        step_msg "found ok version of CLANG: $CFG_CLANG_VERSION"
        CFG_C_COMPILER="clang"
        ;;
        (*)
        err "bad CLANG version: $CFG_CLANG_VERSION, need >=3.0svn"
        ;;
    esac

Ah, looks like this was fixed in bf57d65.

Can someone on mac confirm this is fixed, and close if so?

[cartazio]

is the mac dev center back online for downloading updates? (switching between the 4.6 and 5 cli tools is problematical for me unless thats back online)

[mistydemeo]

The downloads are back, yes.

At any rate, I'm pretty sure this was fixed in bf57d65, so the issue can be closed.

This is now fixed.
