Hi,
I was attempting to compile the code from source, however I run into cmake configuration errors as it asks to supply LLVM_config path "-DLLVM_INSTALL_DIR=/path/to/llvm-config/ in cmake command", please could you help me out it. I am trying to compile it on fedora 19 with gcc version 4.6.3
cheers!!!

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, that's great news, please could you direct me to yum directory. Moreover I was trying to build from source coz I do not wanted to disturb my existing OpenCL install files from Nvidia.

$ yum install fedpkg
$ fedpkg co beignet -a
$ fedpkg srpm

Compile src.rpm with mock or rpmbuild. But I'm not sure is it will work.
There uses ocl-icd, pocl and some things from opencl stack. I'm not sure is
it available for F19.

Because opencl is feature for F21 I'm not taking care for F19.

To build it from source you can download llvm http://llvm.org/releases/3.5.0/clang+llvm-3.5.0-x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu-14.04.tar.xz and then pass the bin folder as DLLVM_INSTALL_DIR.
