Well, I've noticed it when I checked if they finally stopped requiring 8.*. I presumed they've added it instead of proper support for LLVM 9 but didn't expect it to actually pass tests (modulo two silly tests, one checking version and other exact error message). > > Here's to hoping they do it over summer. > > > > PS: regarding lack of resources. > > > I have a spare computer and am willing to use that to do some > > > testing > > > for > > > interesting packages like these.

My plan was to keep the old PC as backup distcc node but I guess it wouldn't amount to much. It was Athlon64 x2 3800+ (from the times when they still called it 'Athlon64'). In any case, I've just tested the version bump and will push it shortly. Thanks! -- Best regards, Michał Górny
