If the Python 3 interpreter + (or libraries) are not found, the build system will, for the time being, fall + back to Python 2. It is recommended that downstream projects migrate to + Python 3 as Python 2 has been end-of-life'd by the Python Software + Foundation. + * The llgo frontend has been removed for now, but may be resurrected in the future. _______________________________________________ llvm-branch-commits mailing list llvm-branch-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/llvm-branch-commits
