Bug#800509: LLVM default to 3.6 transition ?

true, even if some talks about embedding some llvm code in the source code :)
(rationale is: used only for building and only for arm*)
>Unfortunately I can't access the upstream bug report.
true
a little sum up of the upstream bug report:
"llvm folks likes to change API/ABI each 6 months, and in some really incompatible way.
the guy who did the binding is not available/willing to port to some new llvm version, so you
have two choices, keep the old llvm there, or remove/disable the "gambas3-gb-jit" package."
>BTW we currently have 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7 in testing, and I guess 3.8 will follow
>soon. So we'll need more clean-ups.
gambas3 is now RC buggy #814862 and as soon as Ian (cc'd) fixes the RC bug (I don't know how
to best fix it), I can followup and push the package on unstable.
I already have the changes on git, but there is no need to push it with an unfixed RC bug out there.
So, unless you ask me to upload it, I will wait for Ian or someone else (I did a lot of work recently,
but I'm still not a gambas3 user, so some maintainer work is appreciated)
cheers,
G.
