How do I set a specific llvm-config name to look for? I have build environments
with multiple LLVM versions (eg. 6, 7 and 8) installed in parallel. So far I
could convince each build system with LLVM_CONFIG or similar means to choose a
particular llvm-config-${LLVM_VERSION], meson can't do that AFAICT.
Eric pointed me to an ugly hack on IRC, which involves symlinking the particular
llvm-config-${VERSION} to llvm-config in $PATH
(<https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/b5b912dfeebabafbaff176fe4205eb74607f709b>).
But I think this should be fixed properly before making meson mandatory. Other
modern build systems like CMake react to something like -DLLVM_DIR during
configure (see
<https://llvm.org/docs/CMake.html#embedding-llvm-in-your-project>) and Mesa's
stable build systems use LLVM_CONFIG, if set.
Cheers,
Kai
