Hmm, OK so it doesn't have 3 available in parallel from base repos. But it's also about to reach end of "full support" in 2 months[1], so if we applied the policies we discussed in the LLVM-vacuuming thread (to wit: build farm - EOL'd OSes), then... One question I'm unclear on is whether v17 will be packaged for RHEL8. [1] https://access.redhat.com/product-life-cycles?product=Red%20Hat%20Enterprise%20Linux
