Thanks to some recent upstream work in openshadinglanguage, I was
able to rebuild it with LLVM 18 in Rawhide, so it should no longer be
impacted.
The latest upstream release of python-llvmlite now has
“experimental” support for LLVM 15, and the package is now built with LLVM
15 in Rawhide. Upstream plans to support LLVM 17 or later
“eventually,” but the timeline is indefinite
(https://github.com/numba/llvmlite/issues/1048). After some
discussion with co-maintainers of the python-llvmlite package in
the neuro-sig, we agree that we don’t have the collective or
individual appetite to maintain llvm15, and we
expect to orphan the python-llvmlite package if llvm15 is retired as planned. This will impact sympy, which has python-llvmlite as an optional dependency, but it should be sufficient for the sympy package to simply drop its BuildRequires on %{py3_dist llvmlite} if and when python-llvmlite is ultimately retired.
The Fedora LLVM team is planning to retire the remaining compat packages for
LLVM 14, 15 and 16 by July 4th.
The complete list of packages is:
- llvm14: used by golang-tinygo-x-llvm, python-llvmlite
- llvm15: used by clang15, golang-tinygo-x-llvm, intel-igc, intel-opencl-clang,
lld15, openshadinglanguage, spirv-llvm15.0-translator
- clang15: used by clang15, golang-tinygo-x-llvm, intel-igc,
intel-opencl-clang, lld15, openshadinglanguage,
spirv-llvm15.0-translator
- lld15: used by intel-igc
- llvm16: used by clang16, golang-tinygo-x-llvm, ldc, lfortran, lld16
- clang16
- lld16
If anybody would like to keep maintaining these packages in Fedora, we would
gladly transfer ownership of them.
Keep in mind they are not supported by upstream anymore.
