'REPL not exist' when Install Swift 3(RC3) on Ubuntu 14.04

So I was trying to install swift 3 (RC3) on a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (64 bits)
laptop, but get an REPL missing error.

# What happened

cd /usr/local/lib
tar xvf swift-3.0-PREVIEW-3-ubuntu14.04.tar.gz
sudo ln -s swift-3.0-PREVIEW-3-ubuntu14.04 swift

then, created "/etc/profile.d/swift.sh" with following content:

export SWIFT_HOME=/usr/local/lib/swift
export PATH=$SWIFT_HOME/usr/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SWIFT_HOME/usr/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LIBRARY_PATH=$SWIFT_HOME/usr/lib:$LIBRARY_PATH

then, 'source' the .sh file in a terminal and start `swift` :

source /etc/profile.d/swift.sh
swift

and get following error:

error: REPL executable does not exist: '/usr/local/bin/repl_swift'

However, 'swift --version' works with following output:

Swift version 3.0 (swift-3.0-PREVIEW-3)
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

# Try to solve
Thoughts there are some steps may be missed, so I re-checked the
docs on swift.org and swift.org/lldb , but no lucks. Neither does the
blogs I found on how to set up Swift on Ubuntu OS.

(One can just create a sybolic link of repl_swift under /usr/local/bin, but
it bring more works to uninstall/reconfigure Swfit dev env)

Did anyone have met this before? Anything I can try? Or,possibly, there
are sth to be done with the release itself...

Did you install ‘clang’? E.g.(from instructions):

On Linux

First, install clang:

$ sudo apt-get install clang

Hmm.. I just installed swift on a Ubuntu AWS EC2 instance with no problem. I installed the swift toolchain in ‘/usr/local’ and set my PATH as appropriated—no problems. Have you tried installing in a location other than /usr/local/lib and *not* setting ‘LD_LIBRARY_PATH or SWIFT_HOME?

Yes, it works if one install the toolchain directly in '/usr/local' as you
said.
//
The problem here is it SEEMS the toolchain can only use the absolute path '
/usr/local/bin/repl_swift' to look for 'repl_swift', instead of a relative
w.r.t the current path of 'swift' command.
//
The absolute-path-only case may bring extra works when one want to
uninstall/reconfigure/upgrade the toolchian.

Hi Richard & All,

After reboot, the problem solved.

# Detail -- all changes happened
1. the toolchain is unzipped to '/opt' folder and its ownship is changed to
the current user.
2. the 'SWIFT_HOME' value in the '/etc/profile.d/swift.sh' is updated to
'/opt/swift'
3. reboot the system
