As part of the effort to limit the number of llvm packages in the
archive, it would be great if you could upgrade to -17.
This package depends on 14.
Not possible at this time. Trying to build openvdb 10.0.1 against LLVM
17 results in the following error:
CMake Error at openvdb_ax/openvdb_ax/CMakeLists.txt:118 (message):
OpenVDB AX does not currently support LLVM versions >= 15 due to opaque
pointer changes in LLVM. Found unsuitable LLVM version "17.0.6"
The release notes for openvdb 11.1.0[1] mention compatibility with LLVM
15, but not later versions. There's nothing listed for 11.0.0, and a
quick test shows that this hasn't changed:
CMake Error at openvdb_ax/openvdb_ax/CMakeLists.txt:118 (message):
OpenVDB AX does not currently support LLVM versions >= 16 due to opaque
pointer changes in LLVM. Found unsuitable LLVM version "17.0.6"
Which LLVM versions are you planning to remove?
Would it be possible to keep at least LLVM 15 until upstream has
upgraded their code base?
