Hello,

I ran into an issue with the Mesa build of ParaView 5.6.0-RC3  
I could not get LLVM to build. The superbuild failed here

[74%] Linking CXX shared library …/libLLVMWindowsManifest.so  
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lxml2  
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status  
gmake[5]: \*\*\* [lib/libLLVMWindowsManifest.so.7] Error 1  
gmake[4]: \*\*\* [lib/WindowsManifest/CMakeFiles/LLVMWindowsManifest.dir/all] Error 2  
gmake[3]: \*\*\* [all] Error 2  
CMake Error at /home/joeh/PV/Build\_5.6.0-RC3\_mesa/superbuild/sb-llvm-build.cmake:47 (message):  
Failed with exit code 2

and I had to modify the file Build\_5.6.0-RC3\_mesa/superbuild/llvm/build/lib/WindowsManifest/CMakeFiles/LLVMWindowsManifest.dir/link.txt

/usr/bin/g++ -fPIC -fPIC -std=c++11 -fPIC -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -std=c++11 -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wwrite-strings -Wcast-qual -Wno-missing-field-initializers -pedantic -Wno-long-long -Wno-maybe-uninitialized -Wdelete-non-virtual-dtor -Wno-comment -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -O3 -DNDEBUG -Wl,-rpath-link,/home/joeh/PV/Build\_5.6.0-RC3\_mesa/superbuild/llvm/build/./lib -Wl,-O3 -Wl,–gc-sections -Wl,-z,defs -Wl,-z,nodelete -shared -Wl,-soname,libLLVMWindowsManifest.so.7 -o …/libLLVMWindowsManifest.so.7 CMakeFiles/LLVMWindowsManifest.dir/WindowsManifestMerger.cpp.o -Wl,-rpath,"$ORIGIN/…/lib" -lxml2 …/libLLVMSupport.so.7

adding

-L/home/joeh/PV/Build\_5.6.0-RC3\_mesa/install/lib

to the end of the file in order to continue compilation.

I was using these flags on a RHEL 7.6 workstation with the superbuild source installed in

/home/joeh/PV/Source\_5.6.0

and the downloaded tar balls all in

/home/joeh/PV/Downloads

Joe,

I fixed this today and it will be available in the v5.6.0 tag of ParaView superbuild.
