** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  This is needed for some new AMD RDNA4 platforms that require the newer
  llvm for runtime shader compilation.
  
  Skipping oracular, as it is going to be EOL soon.
  
  [Test case]
  
  Check that drivers that require llvm still work, including swrast
  (llvmpipe), radeonsi.
  
  [Where things could go wrong]
  
  The new llvm version might result in buggy behaviour with the
- swrast/radeonsi drivers, but the llvm version we have in plucky has
- already received some bugfixes and has been tested to be good by AMD.
