 Hi, it would be nice to have available llvm-config binary, without suffix,
in every installation of llvm, using alternatives. Actually it is in llvm
package depending on llvm-3.1, but I can't use it with 3.2, I have to use
llvm-config-3.2 and it must be specified this way in every program using
it. It would be more user friendly if it is available with every version,
pointing to a default suggested one if more are available, like what
happens, for example, with the gcc binary.

This way patches like this shouldn't be needed:

Thanks.
