Bug#1037452: clang-15: HIP search paths depend on os-release

[Cordell Bloor]

Package: clang-15
Version: 1:15.0.7-4
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: cgmb at slerp.xyz, debian-ai at lists.debian.org

Dear Maintainer,

The upstream LLVM project checks /etc/os-release to determine if it
should search for HIP in /usr and /usr/local. This is unfortunate
because it introduces unexpected differences in behaviour into
Debian-derived distros like Ubuntu [1].

This behaviour has been fixed upstream in later versions of clang [2].
Could you please backport the patch to clang-15 and clang-16? I've
requested upstream to backport it into an LLVM 16 patch release [3],
but the behaviour in LLVM 15 is specific to Debian as it was introduced
by d/p/amdgpu/usr-search-paths.patch.
