Which LLVM versions are you planning to remove?
15, 16 soon. 17 later.
Would it be possible to keep at least LLVM 15 until upstream has
upgraded their code base?
Sounds very unlikely for the next Debian release.
If a fix for this can't be released on time, I'm requesting an exception
for llvm-15. Removing OpenVDB from Debian will affect Blender, which is
is relatively high-profile and should not just be axed for the sake if a
pruning operation.
Is there any other reason why llvm-15 couldn't be kept, aside from the
reason mentioned in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1050070 ("too many
llvm version") ?
Is there an upstream bug to follow the progress on their upgrade of LLVM?
There is now:
