Bug #: 11440
Summary: ToolChains has hardcoded linux distribution codename
Product: clang
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P
Component: Driver
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Dear developers,
I would like to discuss with you some solution to take away hardcoded codenames
in ToolChains.cpp.
For example, Debian and (in particular) Ubuntu need to patch and add
by-their-hands Distro names in the code every release.
Ubuntu needs upgrade patch every six months.
My question is: does exist another way in which ToolChains.cpp should be
"written" or "conceived" in order to simplify this process?
In this discussion Anders Kaseorg explains the problem very well:

Best regards,
Leo.
