Description Boris Staletic 2022-09-04 21:37:43 UTC

Both, clang and llvm, version 15.0.0 now pull in dev-python/sphinx, even without `doc` USE flag.

Version 14 of the toolchain worked fine without sphinx.
I do not see anything in the ebuild that would explain this difference in behaviour.

I will attach the output of emerge --info for llvm and clang.

From llvm.org.eclass:
```
# @ECLASS_VARIABLE: _LLVM_NEWEST_MANPAGE_RELEASE
# @INTERNAL
# @DESCRIPTION:
# The newest release of LLVM for which manpages were generated.
_LLVM_NEWEST_MANPAGE_RELEASE=14.0.6
```

They'll be generated for the keyworded, non-RC versions.
