Dear LLVM maintainers,
Please check and apply Julia's LLVM patches to Debian's LLVM 6.0.1:
https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/master/deps/llvm.mk#L390-L432
https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/tree/master/deps/patches
I don't quite understand what these patches are doing.
Would be nice to have a better understanding of why they have been added.
Performances, bug, stability, etc.
Besides the arm issue, what otherwise is blocking you with the current
llvm-toolchain-6 ?
Do you know if there is a documentation somewhere?
So in order to
use upstream's LLVM patches, the most straightforward way is to
ship an embedded LLVM in Julia's source package.
Sure but it doesn't scale and this is against the Debian policy (cf 4.13).
We have already too many versions of llvm in the archive, no need to add
one more (esp
as I am active on llvm-toolchain-*)
