And as I'm looking up how this was previously handled, I notice that
this list of clang-NN versions was last updated equally sneakily as part
of your patch to trim off LLVM <10 (820b5af73dc). I wonder if the
original intention of that configure code was that maintaining the
versioned list above clang-7/llvm-config-7 was not needed, because the
unversioning programs could be used, or maybe because pkg-config could
be used. It would be nice if we could get rid of having to update that.
I probably misunderstood why we were doing that, perhaps something to
do with the way some distro (Debian?) was doing things with older
versions, and yeah I see that we went a long time after 7 without
touching it and nobody cared. Yeah, it would be nice to get rid of
it. Here's a patch. Meson didn't have that.
Yes, let's get that v3-0001 patch into PG17.
