-.. HINT:: You need to install LLVM (usually depends on ``libedit``, see :ghdlsharp:`29`). Debugging is only supported with LLVM 3.5.
-
-* First configure GHDL with the proper arg ``./configure --with-llvm-config``. If ``llvm-config`` is not in your path, you can specify it: ``./configure --with-llvm-config=LLVM_INSTALL/bin/llvm-config``.
-
-* Then, build with ``make`` and install with ``make install``.

-.. rubric:: Example:
-
-.. code-block:: Bash
-
- $ cd <ghdl>
- $ mkdir build
- $ cd build
- $ ../configure --with-llvm-config --prefix=PREFIX
- $ make
- $ make install
-
-.. HINT:: If you want to have stack backtraces on errors (like assert failure or index of out bounds), you need to configure and build ``libbacktrace`` from GCC (you don't need to configure GCC). Then add the following arg to configure: ``--with-backtrace-lib=/path-to-gcc-build/libbacktrace/.libs/libbacktrace.a``

-LLVM Backend on Windows with GCC/GNAT (MinGW)
-#############################################
-
-On Windows with MinGW, GHDL is configured by ``configure`` and built by ``make``.
-
-* First, GHDL needs to be configured. It is common to specify a ``PREFIX``
- (installation directory like ``/usr/local`` or ``/opt/ghdl``). Without any
- other option, ``configure`` selects `mcode` as the backend.
-
-* Next, ``make`` starts the compilation process.
-
-* Finally, ``make install`` installs GHDL into the installation directory
- specified by ``PREFIX``.
-
-.. rubric:: Example:
-
-.. code-block:: Bash
-
- $ cd <ghdl>
- $ mkdir build
- $ cd build
- $ ../configure --prefix=PREFIX
- $ make
- $ make install
