Description Kyle Edwards 2022-09-01 18:46:43 UTC 
Description of problem:

clang-tidy includes development headers to allow you to build a custom plugin, but these headers are not packaged in Fedora.

This was prompted by: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/merge_requests/7628

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

clang-14.0.5-1.fc36
Comment 1 serge_sans_paille 2022-10-04 13:50:06 UTC 
If I'm not mistaken, we don't even package the clangTidy library, which is why we don't ship the headers. Do you need just the headers?
Comment 2 Kyle Edwards 2022-10-04 14:18:50 UTC 
clang-tidy has a --load argument, which loads a .so file as a plugin. The plugin doesn't need to link against the clangTidy library, because it resolves all of its symbols from the clang-tidy executable. Just the headers will suffice for building such a plugin.
Comment 3 serge_sans_paille 2022-10-04 16:18:10 UTC 
good to know! I'll craft a test pass and I'll add that

Comment 5 Kyle Edwards 2022-10-05 18:22:17 UTC 
Thanks. I built the packages from that PR locally, and clang-tools-extra-devel does indeed install the headers that I need. Once this is merged, and once we upgrade to Fedora 38, we'll be able to use that package.
