Public bug reported: Not sure what happened. I just tried a sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade and this happened. Tried sudo apt-get -f install next cause sometimes that fixes things when they don't upgrade properly but gave some errors about git-*** , so I removed git; it's not vital to anything i use daily. Then sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade again and this error came up. Not sure what libllvm does but I'm pretty sure it's important and wasn't comfortable removing it.
