Package: llvm

The new 1.9 upstream release is really great, fixes a lot of bugs, and
adds a lot of features. Among them is x86_64 support, much better ARM
support, better optimiziers, and improved test framework, a new
GCC4-based C and C++ front-end, and a bunch of other nice things.

Basically, if you're any kind of serious user of llvm you're really
going to want this new upstream release. It would be create to have
it packaged. It's so sad to compile/install it by hand when an old
version is in Debian!

This bug is 226 days old, and no new upload occurred in the last 10
months.
Now, the newest release is 2.0, and 2.1 is scheduled for September 27th!

Al, do you need help with llvm packaging ?

Mike


Sigh.  Yes, all the help I can get.  This package is far larger than
I have time to adequately address; a team or even someone willing to
adopt would be wonderful.  At this point, I'm just slowing things down
and this is technology that really needs to get out into the world.

Any volunteers?  If not, I'll send out an RFA or RFH.
