Hi,

I tried running qmake with -d -d -d and the output is enormous.
My brain was not capable of parsing the text. Need to use a different 
parser ;-)

Anyway, I ended up in: _src/plugins/clangformat/Makefile_

For the clarity of this conversation, I attach a patch showing what has 
to be done in order to link correctly.
Basically, the search directory for LLVM has to be placed before the 
system libraries.

Do you know a way to do it at the qmake stage, so that I don't have to 
patch the Makefile?

Help appreciated!
