[Pkg-clamav-devel] Bug#873401: clamav FTBFS with LLVM 4.0 as default

[Adrian Bunk]

Control: retitle -1 clamav FTBFS with LLVM 4.0 as default
Control: severity -1 serious

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=clamav

...
checking for GNU make... make
configure: Using external LLVM
checking for supported LLVM version... no (4.0.1)
configure: error: LLVM < 4.0 required, but "4.0.1"(401) found
configure: error: Failed to configure LLVM, and LLVM was explicitly requested


A proper fix would be upstream supporting LLVM 4.0, but a possible 
short-term fix (that wouldn't be sufficient for the buster release) 
would be to use a non-default LLVM (with 3.9 being marginally better 
than 3.8).
