Hi Olaf,
in the other thread you've asked what version of LLVM to use in Debian.
In fact, Sylvestre, the Debian LLVM maintainer, has recently asked me to
update to LLVM 21 or 19, see the message below.
He is the best person to answer specific questions about LLVM in Debian,
such as on timelines or technical particularities.
Sylvestre, Olaf is my former thesis advisor and is developing a
source-to-source compiler for the AspectC++ language. The implementation
takes AspectC++ code (think AspectJ, but C++), and uses gcc/LLVM to
transform it to C++. I'm helping to keep that compiler in a usable state
in Debian.
Thanks everyone for your assistance!

Dear Maintainer,
We would like to remove llvm 17 and it depends on it.
Could you please upgrade to 21?
Thanks
Sylvestre
