Platforms

The setups tested in CI are intended to cover all platforms supported under Zeek's platform support policy. Some platforms are supported on a best effort basis.

The following configurations are continuously tested in CI:

ubuntu-20.04	clang-10.0.1	3.0.11	✅
ubuntu-20.04	clang-9.3.0	3.0.11	✅	uses static libraries
ubuntu-20.04	gcc-9.3.0	3.0.11	✅	JIT disabled
ubuntu-20.04	clang-11.1.0	master	Best effort	master only

But for Zeek we typically prefer distribution packages over installing directly from source; for Zeek we use prebuild pinned packages from Zeek's build service. For some setups it might still be necessary to install requirements from non-distribution sources; we e.g., install LLVM from upstream packages for Debian-like distributions or from source; the same sometimes applies to Bison, Flex, or CMake.
