either the debian LLVM package is br0ken or upstream. So I removed

Great!
You didn't mention that the size of libclamav is reduced substantially
as well.
Therefore I think we must add a Built-Using field [2] containing the
corresponding LLVM version.
Yeah. Or could we get llvm to link against the .so file? It seems to
work. It looks like the problem is with llvm-config. Its --libs option
lists all the -l switch for all .a files. It would make sense to link
against .so lib instead. I wonder why they do it this way because they
ship a .so file but there is no way to link against without hardcoding
the lib name…
LLVM's llvm-config is a mess...
So for now, I just hardcoded '-lLLVM-$llvmver' in configure.ac.

I would recommend to add a proper pkg-config file to LLVM instead of
trying to fix llvm-config. This should be simpler and the result more
likely to be useful. For example you can tell pkg-config, whether or not
you want to link statically.
Best regards,
Andreas
