Hi!
Since llvm4 hit the Factory, I'd like to remove llvm3_8 and llvm3_9 (along with lldb3_8 and lldb3_9) from Factory to lower the maintenance burden. Is there anyone who needs these packages for some reason please speak up now.
I don't need older versions, but maybe you could keep at least llvm3_9 (or the previous version) in order to make the transition easier. I often compile mesa from trunk, and pulling llvm3_9 under its feet makes me feel uncomfortable.
Sure, we can keep it there for some more time, until 4.1 and such.
Another concern is that llvm4 failed to build on armv7l and armv6l. armv6l is a known QEMU/glibc problem, whereas armv7l hopefully just needs to be retriggered. (Dirk? Andreas?)
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory:ARM/llvm4
I know about the qemu problem, and locally armv7l gave the same problem hence there is no way for me to debug it.
llvm3_9 is showing build errors for aarch64 and armv6l, but at least there's binaries available that other packages can build against.
In general the non-x86 archs may be slower at building sometimes, so please check :PowerPC and :zSystems too before making removal decisions for such a key package as llvm.

I always keep an eye on SystemZ and PPC64{LE} and unlike ARM they are 99% of the time is stable. Regards, ismail -- SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg)
