Clang not detected on Ubuntu 17.10

1

Hi All,

Clang is not detected on a new Ubuntu 17.10 beta. Platformio is complaining that clang is not installed and ask me to install now, remind later or disable. Clang is installed and if I click install now it is successful and ask me to restart. After restart it still complains.

Here is the output about clang version from terminal:

clang --version

clang version 4.0.1-5ubuntu1 (tags/RELEASE_401/final)
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin

Is it something that I am doing wrong or this is a bug ?

Thanks !

Could you open PIO IDE Terminal (not a system) and type clang --version?

From PIO terminal it is reported with an error:

Just for background - I have installed Atom from ubuntu software center and then installed platformio-ide from Atom.

Thanks for looking into it.

Have you resolved this issue?

Software center installs Atom as a snap. Uninstall the existing Atom and install using the .deb file available from the Atom website. Then, your issue will be solved.
