Debian has the libclc source package, but it looks like it is no longer
available upstream.
Actually the web page https://libclc.llvm.org/ points to a dead git
repository.

The mirror repo at https://github.com/llvm-mirror/libclc says:
Mirror kept for legacy. Moved to https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project

Indeed what was inside libclc git repo it is now inside
llvm-toolchain-11 package (see https://sources.debian.org/src/llvm-toolchain-11/1:11.0.1-2/libclc/)
and it also has some additional fixes.

So it would be nice to build updated libclc from llvm-toolchain-11 and
then remove the obsolete libclc source package from Debian.

Thanks
