Build failure on ubuntu 14.04 with sbt-0.13.11 about scala-native

I just found that running sbt with Java 7 resolved a different back trace. Might not be the same problem, but did note that you were using Java 8.

The problem was indicated in the error is at ScalaNativePluginInternal.scala:61
which is

nativeClang := file(Process(Seq("which", "clang++")).lines_!.head),

Well, I didn't have anything for which to find.

When I fixed this by linking my /usr/lib/llvm-3.6/bin/clang++ to /usr/bin/clang++

I got to the next error ;^)

Anyone know how to make sbt "fail gracefully" in the middle of creating projectSettings the way that ScalaNativePluginInternal does? An error message here would be nice ;^)

By the way, did I say how COOL THIS PROJECT IS!?!

I solved this problem. You have to install llvm, clang and gc first.
I did it by this instruction. It's written for mac so you need to install all via apt-get.

Getting things build on Linux a bit complicated at the moment, @andreaTP's docker script is the easiest way to do it semi-automatically right now. We're currently working on making it easier. I've gathered all the common issues people are hitting in #102 , follow that ticket for updates.
