Yes:

build-script --preset=buildbot_linux_1404
installable_package=/tmp/swift.tar.gz
install_destdir=/tmp/swift-install

Unfortunately, that depends on the swift-package-tests directory,
which is currently missing from the repository.  As a temporary
workaround, please disable those tests by commenting out
"test-installable-package=1" from utils/build-presets.ini.

See discussion in https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-39

This is because 'swift' and 'lldb' binaries need to be next to each
other for the REPL to work. This is not the case in the build tree. To
fix, either create a symlink in your build tree, or build the package,
where the two are installed next to each other.
