Does anyone here know of a good PPA for those?

They are in Debian experimental. They might work for Ubuntu, I don't know.

LLVM & Clang 3.2 are in Ubuntu raring.
They are directly sync from Debian, so, they should work.

It's in raring, i.e. the upcoming 13.04 release: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-3.2

The PPAs listed on that page don't appear to have caught up, and in any case don't look like they're intended for folks who just want fresh LLVM.

If you're comfortable with programming and/or general system administration, backporting packages for upload to a PPA is generally not too difficult.

Download "Clang Binaries for Ubuntu-12.04/x86_64"

Why Binaries?

Binaries, Shminaries!!

Why not compile from source code? It took me about one hour to do so (both LLVM and Clang) on a 32-bit Centrino Duo 1.6GHz laptop.

And, since I had the previous version installed (also from source), I was able to compile LLVM and Clang with... LLVM and Clang. Self-hosting compilers FTW!

But then you have to compile twice. Once with the old compiler and then again with the new one.

And I did just that. Hey, I've got two hours to spare on a Saturday afternoon. :)

I hope you didn't forget to funroll all your loops in the process.

Clang has loop funrolling, right?

Why Binaries?

funrolling; a non-copyright infringing name for the unexpected showing of a eighties music video.
