Package: clang-17
Version: 1:17.0.6-5
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected], [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
I noticed a build failure in rocmprim on ppc64el that seems to have been
introduced between clang-15 and clang-17. I'm not certain that this is a
compiler issue, because several ROCm libraries are closely coupled to
the compiler also must be updated to switch out the compiler. However,
the error message seems to suggest that it is compiler-related.
Compare the buildd logs for rocprim 5.7.1 using clang-17 [1] and using
clang-15 [2]. With clang-17, this error is encountered on ppc64el:
