Hey hey, David, could you tell me which compiler is used to build the Csound package? - Is there perhaps a systematic way to find such information? So far, I haven't discovered any, but I'm not too familiar with the Arch package system. To answer your question for csound 6.12.2-7 specifically: gcc 8.3.0
Usually, many of the packages are built using gcc. Some (e.g. faust) require llvm though. As gcc is in the base-devel package group, which is implied for building packages, it's usually not listed explicitely in makedepends [1]. If one needs llvm (i.e. clang) for building a package, it has to be added to makedepends, as it is not in base-devel (don't ask me why ;-) ). That being said, looking at csound [2], I realize there's llvm still in makedepends, but it's actually not required for building! IIRC it was added for testing purposes, but just not removed.
