How To Install llvm-static on CentOS 8

llvm-static is LLVM static libraries LLVM static libraries

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install llvm-static on CentOS 8.

What is `llvm-static`

Static libraries for the LLVM compiler infrastructure. llvm-static 11.0.0 2.module_el8.4.0+587+5187cac0 x86_64 38 M llvm-11.0.0-2.module_el8.4.0+587+5187cac0.src.rpm appstream LLVM static libraries http NCSA Static libraries for the LLVM compiler infrastructure.

We can use yum or dnf to install llvm-static on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install llvm-static.

Install llvm-static on CentOS 8 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:
