lldb error: process launch failed: unable to locate lldb-server

I'm running Xubuntu 16.04. After installing lldb from the repositories, I get the following output when I try to use it:

lldb foo
(lldb) target create "foo"
Current executable set to 'foo' (x86_64).
(lldb) r
error: process launch failed: unable to locate lldb-server

Any ideas what I'm missing?

I recommend setting an alternative rather than copying. On Ubuntu, you can do this with:

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/lldb-server lldb-server /usr/bin/lldb-server-3.8 100

After an hour or so of fiddling around, I found the solution. I copied /usr/bin/lldb-server-3.8 and named it /usr/bin/lldb-server. This is probably a problem with the ubuntu package.
