I am also keeping old versions of LLVM for Prefix team. That's why I'd |
| 21 |
really prefer to get rid of them and have them in some common overlay |
| 22 |
that all Prefix users can use. |

Maybe it is. But isn't making maintenance of Gentoo packages more |
| 30 |
complexity for Prefix an overkill? We are effectively switching |
| 31 |
from trivial model of 'assign bug with X to maintainer' to checking |
| 32 |
which maintainer applies to which version of X. |
