Comment 4 Matt Newsome 2017-02-28 21:43:33 UTC
As agreed on today's Red Hat / IBM Power sync call, this is a request for the full LLVM/Clang C++ developer toolchain to be made available to PowerPC users.

We have no plans to add an LLVM/Clang package to RHEL itself, but we are exploring potential delivery via RHSCL/DTS. These plans are uncommitted, though, and so should not be assumed for Pegas. My understanding from Bill Schmidt was that this was a request rather than a hard requirement from the IBM side, and so this is acceptable. We agreed to drop this feature from the Pegas deliveries.

I've moved this bugs to DTS as I know the IBM BZ system can mirror those ok.

Took off Pegas-BD tracker as IBM agreed this was a DTS deliverable.
