Package: ghdl-llvm
Version: 5.0.1+dfsg-1+b1

Hi,

when installing GHDL with LLVM backend, an executable (here
ghdl1-llvm) gets installed into /usr/lib/ghdl/llvm. Correct me if I'm
wrong, but I have never seen any executables in /usr/lib/...

The analogy of ghdl1-llvm is similar to cc1 in gcc. cc1 is installed into
/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/13/cc1

/usr/libexec/.... sounds better than /usr/lib/....

Further notes on the LLVM backend:
The new llvm-jit backend is not yet included as a new package.

Kind regards
    Patrick
