Description

I am experiencing some problems running the example program and after some time I think I figured out why. I also saw similar issues that might be solved after solving this problem. The folder pointed to by this variable doesn't exists.
https://github.com/Rust-GPU/Rust-CUDA/blob/8a6cb734d21d5582052fa5b38089d1aa0f4d582f/crates/rustc_codegen_nvvm/build.rs#L13
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Research direction

Start with crates/rustc_codegen_nvvm/build.rs at line 13 and verify which prebuilt LLVM folder the example build expects. Trace how that path is obtained and identify the current expected location or setup; done means the example no longer fails because the referenced folder is missing.
