Libc++ v5 PPA for Ubuntu now available

Monday, 11 September 2017

I am please to announce that I have made v5.0 of libc++ available for Ubuntu Linux via a PPA. Initially, the binaries are only available for Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial.

I was frustrated at the lack of an up-to-date build of libc++ for linux, especially with the v5.0 release of clang. Even though the LLVM project provide Ubuntu packages for clang, they don't provide one for libc++, and the version in the Ubuntu repositories is woefully out of date (v3.7). I therefore decided to package it myself, in this PPA.

This is especially good, since in combination with clang v5.0, it provides support for the Coroutines TS!

Enjoy!
