Comment 1 Tom Stellard 2024-01-17 22:29:19 UTC
@fzatlouk Do you still think you will need this package for intel-cm-compiler?

Comment 2 František Zatloukal 2024-01-17 22:42:49 UTC
Yes, I'll convert cm-compiler from llvm8.0 to llvm11 and retire the 8 before f40 branching. This is, unfortunately, the best I can do.

Thanks for the ping!

Comment 3 Jens Petersen 2024-01-18 04:52:03 UTC
As the official package maintainer of llvm7.0, llvm8.0, and llvm11
I think I will move this to llvm8.0 then.
I think maybe llvm7.0 can be retired now perhaps, but I need to check first more carefully across archs.

llvm8.0 is also required by spirv-llvm8.0-translator

I intend to retire spirv-llvm8.0 once I switch the cm-compiler to llvm11 (and add spirv-llvm11). It seems like I own llvm8.0 in Fedora, do you need that for anything, Jens?
