I'm writing a C++ program that needs to compile and link with LLVM, and
trying to figure out how to build it with autotools.
The good news is, llvm-config will supply the relevant compiler and linker
flags.
The bad news is, the llvm-config in the current path is not likely to be
the right one (e.

I don't think I'm understanding you - in this case, I'm the one writing the
program, and thinking about the configure.ac and Makefile.am I'll be
supplying to users and prospective package maintainers?
I think the default autoconf on typical Linux distributions is normally
sufficient these days?

Is llvm-config hardcoded into
In this case I'm the one who has to write configure.ac and Makefile.am so I
need to find out what the answers need to be. But I see what you're saying,
that it's at least theoretically possible to do the whole job on the
./configure command line. That would make said command line a bit long and

I think I sort of see how to set variables within configure.ac, and do some
minimal calculations on them. But how do you transfer the value of a
variable set in configure.ac, to Makefile.am where it will be actually used?

Any shell variable
How do you do a clean rebuild, i.e. rebuilding all machine-generated files?
I tried autoconf -i, tried prefixing it with make clean, tried prefixing it
with make distclean, but configure still had an old timestamp, so I tried
manually rm configure, but the newly generated configure is still printin
