- Require clang/llvm-devel metapackages instead of directly
requiring the latest version. With clang migrating away from
update-alternatives, the versioned packages no longer provide the
/usr/bin/clang symlink, which will now be contained in the
metapackage only. If older LLVM versions are required, the
compiler binary has to be provided via CLANG=clang-<N>.
