[SOLVED] any guide to install clang 16?

Trying to install clang 16 without major breakage on an otherwise stable Arch. I need to test a compilation that fails with the current clang and it's supposed to succeed with clang 16.

I'd simply use Arch Linux Archive to pacstrap an older state into a chroot or (nspawn) container.
This way you have a completely isolated system for your tests without compromising your current setup.

OP wants a newer version of clang then is in the repos.

Are you ok with using llvm/clang git versions (currently at 17) ?

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Oh thanks @Lone_Wolf! I had checked the Aur repos and didn't see the clang_git one, this should work
