If I understand correctly, the sudden disappearance of llvm7.0 means that
now ghc is in danger as a package, because it's missing the toolchain
needed to build & package it?
I did a quick `dnf search llvm` and I see the following on my main Fedora
32 box:
llvm5.0.i686 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm5.0.x86_64 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm6.0.i686 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm6.0.x86_64 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm7.0.i686 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm7.0.x86_64 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm8.0.i686 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm8.0.x86_64 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm9.0.i686 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
llvm9.0.x86_64 : The Low Level Virtual Machine
However,
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages lists only llvm9.0 and
llvm10.0 builds.
I think it's an interesting problem in general. Perhaps it would be good to
have at least 1 extra version of GCC and LLVM other than the current
mainline?
Best,
Andy

In March llvm7.0 which had been orphaned for some reason, got
retired.
Unfortunately I missed the warning mails that Miro sent here.
llvm7.0 is needed for aarch64 ghc:8.8,
and for ghc-8.8.3 planned for F33.
So I would like to unretire llvm7.0.
Thanks, Jens
