Hi,
Debian (and derived) distros ship their compilers as -$ver suffixed
binaries. For gcc it is sufficent to use:
$ make CC=gcc-12
However, clang builds (esp. clang-lto) need a whole array of tools to be
exactly right, leading to unweildy stuff like:
$ make CC=clang-13 LD=ld.lld=14 AR=llvm-ar-13 NM=llvm-nm-13 OBJCOPY=llvm-objcopy-13 OBJDUMP=llvm-objdump-13 READELF=llvm-readelf-13 STRIP=llvm-strip-13 LLVM=1
which is, quite franktly, totally insane and unusable. Instead use the
already mandatory LLVM variable to convey this, enabling one such as
myself to use:
$ make LLVM=-13
This also lets one quickly test different clang versions.
